A Sapphic Celestial Slow Burn: Conjuring & Crossroads by Luciana Morfa

April 26, 2025 by Zauditu S.

You know that feeling when you finish a book and just kind of… sit there, clutching it to your chest like it personally changed your life? That was me after reading Conjuring & Crossroads by Luciana Morfa. It’s one of those reads that sneaks up on you—fun and swoony at first, and then suddenly you’re crying over two goddesses learning how to love each other through centuries of baggage.

Not-So-Dark Academia: The Incandescent by Emily Tesh

April 21, 2025 by Maggie

I was very excited to get an ARC for The Incandescent by Emily Tesh, because Some Desperate Glory was one of my top books of 2023. Magical boarding school is a jump from space dystopia redemption arc, but Emily Tesh continues not to disappoint. The Incandescent is a zippy, fresh perspective of a boarding school story that sucked me from the beginningRead More

The Cozy Wedding Coup: Tea You at the Altar by Rebecca Thorne

March 4, 2025 by Danika Ellis

Tea You at the Altar is the third book in the Tomes & Tea cozy fantasy series, and it follows Kianthe and Reyna as they plan their wedding… and possibly a coup. (This review contains spoilers for books one and two.) I really enjoyed Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea, but I thought the second bookRead More

Lesbrary Reviews

A Race Between Witches and Witch Hunters: VenCo by Cherie Dimaline Review

January 21, 2025 by Rachel Friars

From the award-winning author of The Marrow Thieves (2017) comes a novel about queer community, survival, and joy—with a twist. Cherie Dimaline’s VenCo (2023) is a compelling story about the (super)natural powers of women.  VenCo follows orphan Lucky St. James, the daughter of a bad-ass Métis woman living with her grandmother, Stella, in Toronto. When Lucky discovers that the twoRead More

It’s been five years since young witches and lovers Caro Rabbit and Iccadora Alice Sickle were both sentenced to Wonderland, the dark forest where monsters called Saints lurk, for a crime they didn’t commit. In the process of escaping, they break one another’s hearts. Now Icca will stop at nothing to exact her revenge onRead More

A Bittersweet Supernatural Romp: Even Though I Knew the End by C.L. Polk Review

December 4, 2024 by Susanne Salehi

At the close of 2024, I offer up my favorite read of the year: C.L. Polk’s Even Though I Knew the End.  This novella catapulted me through five acts in the span of 133 pages, and it hurt in the best possible way. Settle in for a gritty noir detective story: January 1941, Chicago. The coldRead More

Soothe Your Sapphic Soul with Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne

November 19, 2024 by Danika Ellis

With the weather getting colder and the… general state of the world, I’ve been gravitating towards cozy fantasy lately, which is why I finally picked up a book that’s been on my TBR for far too long: Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne. This is the first in the Tomes & Tea series,Read More

A Lush and Lesbian Political Fantasy: The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri

November 7, 2024 by Caelin

In honor of The Lotus Empire being released on November 12th, I decided to reread The Jasmine Throne and actually continue with the series past the first book. I first read it back in 2021 when it came out and I remember enjoying it, but aside from that, not much stuck in my head. I never got around toRead More

Finally, the Canonically Queer Lady Knight We Deserve in The Fireborne Blade by Charlotte Bond

November 6, 2024 by Susanne Salehi

Charlotte Bond’s dark fantasy novella, The Fireborne Blade, is a beautifully straightforward dungeon crawler until it isn’t.  Protagonist Sir Maddileh is a rarity as a knighted woman and she’s in dire need of a truly spectacular feat to reclaim her honor and restore her standing at court. Enter her current foolhardy quest to retrieve the Fireborne Blade. The onlyRead More
