Babusha reviews the Kate Kane series by Alexis Hall
Look, the books I’m talking about here were released at a time when – I thought I was straight I thought Twilight was the epitome of vampire romance. So after four years of going through some intense self-reflection and some brief boycotting of vampires altogether, I realised that I still loved vampires–I just like themRead More

Alexa reviews Into the Mystic Volume 3 by NineStar Press
Her ghost had once told Clotho that no proper ghost story has a happy ending, because ghosts don’t end. It’s no secret that I have a soft spot for fantasy, paranormal and fairytales, so of course I had to pick up an anthology that has nine F/F stories with paranormal elements. While the stories hadRead More
Shira Glassman reviews Moon-Bright Tides by RoAnna Sylver

Danika reviews Bearly a Lady by Cassandra Khaw
I will admit, I was sold immediately when I heard “Bisexual werebear novella.” The book opens with Zelda (yes, Zelda) irritated that her transformation into a bear is continually destroying her wardrobe. She works for a fashion magazine, so she doesn’t take this lightly. This is such a fun, light read. It’s quippy and snarkyRead More

“You won’t find anyone in this town straighter than a pretzel.” A Sheep in Wolf’s Clothing is the first book in the Fool’s Crown, a supernatural/urban fantasy series. The book contains themes of domestic abuse, sexual violence, and homelessness. An enjoyable read, but without much resolution, making it a two star book. I was drawnRead More

I had donated to a crowd-funding campaign for this anthology and I’ve been meaning to read it since it arrived inRead More
