The Lesbrary Goes To Flame Con 2022 — Anna N.

September 5, 2022 by Lesbrarians

Let’s see if I can keep my rhapsodizing to a minimum. Because from the moment I walked into the conference hall, there was a vibrancy in the air. Everyone I encountered during Flame Con was absolutely unabashed in their sheer fannishness, wearing their fandoms on their backpacks, jackets, and jaw-dropping cosplays. You know you’re in forRead More

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Considering how important Asbury Park and its history was to me in my formative years, it comes as no surprise that this is the comic I recommend to literally every sapphic I have met since it was published. Seriously, it’s got a diverse cast, excellent characters, genuine heartRead More

Sheila reviews Harley Quinn: The Animated Series: The Eat. Bang! Kill. Tour #1-2 by Tee Franklin, Max Sarin, and Marissa Louise

December 6, 2021 by Lesbrarians

Considering that I have viewed much of Harley Quinn’s comic, television, and film history from afar until recently (after watching Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn, which I felt was one of the best bisexually-focused films I have ever seen. Watch it, and tell me I’m wrong, I dare you.),Read More

Way back in 2016, I wrote a post for Book Riot called 5 Lesbian Mermaid Comics You Need to Read where I rounded up sapphic mermaid and selkie comics. There were far too few than I would like, but I was able to find a three page comic story from Molly Ostertag on tumblr aboutRead More

Danika reviews Space Battle Lunchtime Volume 3 by Natalie Riess

March 6, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I adored the first two volumes of Space Battle Lunchtime.

It finished with aRead More
