Tierney reviews Turning for Home by Caren J. Werlinger
It’s hard to summarize the plot of Turning for Home, chiefly because it’s kind of a hodgepodge of happenings without much tying them together beyond the fact that they are centered around a single main character – but I will try. *spoilers ahead, throughout this whole review* Jules returns to the small Ohio town inRead More
Tierney reviews What Matters Most by Georgia Beers
Kelsey makes a big move from North Carolina to Chicago to follow her dream and open her own scent shop. Though she is slow to make friends, and spends much of her time worrying how to keep her small business afloat, her life is in an upswing, and things get better when she meets TheresaRead More
Shira Glassman reviews Mistress Moderately Fair by Katherine Sturtevant
The English Restoration, i.e. when Charles Stuart II returned to England to take his father’s throne back from the Puritans, fascinates me for being a renaissance of both art and hedonism. Theaters opened again after being banned, and all kinds of sexual openness flourished. I purposely sought out queer lit set in this time period–notRead More
Kelley O’Brien reviews Camp Rewind by Meghan O’Brien
I’ve been excited to read Meghan O’Brien’s Camp Rewind since I first read the synopsis last year. A book about two women of color dealing with very real and contemporary problems like social anxiety and online harassment and misogyny? Sign me right up! Despite my excitement for the book, it somehow got pushed back dueRead More
Marthese reviews We Awaken by Calista Lynne
“I went on a date in a dream with a mildly mythical figure who couldn’t possibly exist. And we were swing dancing” We Awaken is a Fantasy Young Adult short novel about Victoria and Ashlinn. What drew me to this book was the fact that it was a fantasy young adult book about anRead More
Whitney D.R. reviews Fetch by B.L. Wilson
I wanted to read Fetch for two reasons: Black lesbians and my most beloved enemies-to-lovers romance trope. I don’t know what it is about two people who initially can’t stand each other realizing they’re in love (despite their better judgement), but it really turns my crank. Fetch also contains another of my favorite tropes and that’s oppositesRead More

Marthese reviews The Other Side: An Anthology of Queer Paranormal Romance edited by Melanie Gillman and Kori Michele Handwerker
“Anyway, I’m pretty sure malevolent spirits wouldn’t scrub your bathtub” The Other Side: An Anthology of Queer Paranormal Romance is, as the name implies, a queer paranormal romance comic anthology, published in July 2016. I had donated to a crowd-funding campaign for this anthology and I’ve been meaning to read it since it arrived inRead More
Tierney reviews The Roundabout by Gerri Hill
[Trigger warning for sexual assault and online harassment.] The Roundabout is a gentle, lighthearted romance – with one serious flaw, which unfortunately is a deal-breaker. In the small and very gay town of Eureka Springs, an unattached queer woman is apparently a hot commodity. Megan Phenix is being courted by a variety of women whomRead More
