A New Take On the 20-Something F*ckup Novel: All This Could Be Different by Sarah Thankam Mathews

I have heard only great things about this book since it came out in 2022, but I somehow didn’t actually pick it up until my queer book club chose it for this month’s pick. I vaguely remembered downloading an ARC on my ereader, soRead More

Lesbrary Sneak Peek: More books I got in the mail!

April 30, 2010 by Danika Ellis

I got a box of books in the mail this week that I’m very excited about. (Thanks Bookmooch!) This is one of those really specific titles that I always find fascinating. In its defense, this isn’t actually all about lesbian hair (though you probably could write a book about it). It’s a humour book thatRead More
