Alice reviews A Sheep in Wolf’s Clothing by Avery Aimeson
“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
Marthese reviews Mermaid in Chelsea Creek by Michelle Tea
Mermaid in Chelsea Creek is yet another book I have been meaning to get into and the hype did not disappoint. This young adult fantasy book is set in Chelsea, Massachusetts and follows Sophia a teenage girl with Polish ancestry. Sophia and her best friend Ella like to play the pass-out game because it’s the onlyRead More
Marthese reviews The Second Mango by Shira Glassman
She also picked up a mango, and then, after thinking about it for a moment, bought a second as well. The Second Mango is the first in the Mangoverse high-fantasy series. It felt so good to read fantasy again! Especially a book that I have been meaning to read for a while and now that theRead More
Julie Thompson reviews Go Deep (All Out Vancouver #2) by Leigh Matthews
(This review contains some spoilers) Buckle up for a rocky road of doppelgängers, hospitals, concussin’, and a ménage à wedding. It’s heating up (literally, I am melting into the asphalt) around the Pacific Northwest and what better way to enjoy your burgeoning beach bum status than with a fun, flirty, roller coaster of a novel?Read More
Marthese reviews Elves and Escapades by Eleanor Beresford
“you’ve grown up more than you want to admit” Elves and Escapades is the second book in the Scholars and Sorcerers series. The book is only 136 pages and you’ll fly through it like a Pegasus (heh). This book picks up after the events of the first one and is similar in its tender toneRead More
Marthese reviews Pegasi and Prefects (Scholars and Sorcery #1) by Eleanor Beresford
“I take my questions and shining little badges with me” Keeping in line with my recent reviews, I read another short fantasy book. This time, I read Pegasi and Prefects which is the first in the Scholars and Sorcery series. I found it to be a somewhat good introduction but it focuses more on theRead More
Islay reviews Raven Mask by Winter Pennington
Raven Mask is the second in Winter Pennington’s series featuring the adventures of ‘preternatural investigator’ werewolf Kassandra Lyall, and I would most certainly recommend reading the first before the second as Raven Mask picks up fairly seamlessly from where the first novel leaves off. It is, however, an enjoyable romp told with flare and goodRead More
Danika reviews Watchtower by Elizabeth A. Lynn
Elizabeth E. Lynn’s first novel, Watchtower, is a fantasy that won the 1980 World Fantasy Award for best novel. I haven’t read a lot of fantasy books, but I’m trying to broaden my horizon for the Lesbrary. Watchtower is about Ryke, a commander who defends Tornor Keep. When Tornor Keep is invaded (don’t worry, I’mRead More
Danika reviews Kushiel’s Dart by Jacqueline Carey
Love as thou wilt. Such is the precept of Elua, the most important deity of Terre d’Ange, where Kushiel’s Dart takes place. If that sounds like the perfect commandment for a queer novel, it pretty much is. Kushiel’s Dart is the first of a trio of trilogies based in the same world, though only theRead More
