Queer Adventure, Romance and Revenge in the Wild West: Lucky Red by Claudia Cravens

September 13, 2023 by Natalie

Bookshop.org Affiliate Link This queer Western did not disappoint. I tore through this tale that is equal parts cowgirl adventure, gritty coming of age, steamy F/F romance, and revenge heist. This was a ride that only ramped up as I kept reading. If you’re looking for a getaway in these last weeks of summer, thisRead More

Til reviews The Ballad of Dinah Caldwell by Kate Brauning

October 24, 2022 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link This is the sort of review best begun with a caveat that I intend no ill will toward those who enjoyed the book… but maybe they’ll want to give it a miss, because I really do not like this book. In fact, I found the reading experience soRead More

Anna N. reviews The Lost Girls by Sonia Hartl

March 5, 2022 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The Summary: According to J.M. Barrie and Jeffrey Boam, lost boys don’t grow up because they don’t want to.
