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

Rachel reviews Real Easy by Marie Rutkoski

February 8, 2022 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Readers might know Marie Rutkoski’s work from her young adult Winner’s Curse trilogy (2014-2016) or her more recent f/f fantasy series, Forgotten Gods.

Meagan Kimberly reviews Here Comes the Sun by Nicole Dennis-Benn

July 28, 2020 by Danika Ellis

Their relationships with each other, their love interests, their mother, and everyone inRead More

July 20, 2020 by Danika Ellis

In these trying times, the romance stories I am drawn to most right now involve two characters taking one look at each other and going “Oh.” Enemies to lovers or any variation thereof has its place, and is a trope I do enjoy, but right now what I want is two characters just being intoRead More

Genevra Littlejohn reviews Beneath the Silver Rose by T.S Adrian

June 19, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Shadiya is a prized courtesan of the Silver Rose, one of dozens of elegant Sisters who serve the men–though never the women–of the land of Anderholm. Fiercer-tempered than any of her compatriots, Shadiya makes what would be reckoned by many in her position as a mistake; rather than allowing herself to be raped, she killsRead More
