A Lake of Feathers and Moonbeams is a queer Swan Lake retelling, and honestly, it just had to live up to that premise to win me over. I may not be incredibly familiar with the ballet, but I grew up watching Swan Princess constantly. Besides, queer fairy tale(-esque) retellings are one of my favourite thingsRead More
Quinn Jean reviews Reign of the Fallen by Sarah Glenn Marsh
[this review contains minor spoilers and discusses depictions of violence and substance abuse in the novel, particularly in paragraph three] Reign of the Fallen is a refreshing and original addition to both the fantasy and the queer YA genres, a welcome departure from more formulaic and predictable novels that populate both areas.

Mary reviews The Queen of Ieflaria by Effie Calvin
Fantasy was the genre that got me to love books, but I fell out of love with it as I couldn’t find any books with characters that weren’t straight or cisgender.

Danika reviews Hellebore & Rue edited by JoSelle Vanderhooft and Catherine Lundoff
I’m going to be honest: the only thing I was really looking for in Hellebore & Rue: Tales of Queer Women and Magic was for it to live up to its cover. I mean, look at that cover! It’s definitely one of my favourites. The good news is, it does! It seems like every review ofRead More
Danika reviews Love Spell by Karen Williams
Okay, so it may be a little late to pick this up for Halloween, but still! I’ll admit, I picked up this book entirely because of Rie (Friend of Dorothy Wilde)’s review, so you should probably check that out. I’m going to go with the negatives first, in a convenient bulleted list There definitely isRead More
