The plot: Closeted political lawyer newly released from prison on a corruption charge and therefore utterly friendless and disgraced, ends up working random retail where she meets an adorable, hospitable Southern femme. I’ve been in a huge reading slump since the lockdown started, sticking with familiar stories I already knew–to the point where there’s atRead More
Shira Glassman reviews Who We Could Be by Chelsea Cameron
I think this book is going to be chocolate cream pie for readers who are suckers for friends-to-lovers f/f. Who We Could Be by Chelsea Cameron is pitched as (grown) Anne/Diana from the beloved Anne of Green Gables series. Cameron has definitely captured the magic of the conventional girl (Diana, or “Monty” in this book — Montgomery, possiblyRead More
Shira Glassman reviews Wrong Number, Right Woman by Jae
I’d read and enjoyed some fanfic pieces that use the trope of “romance that blossoms when a friendship starts after a wrong-number text responds to the sender,” including a cute “no powers” alternate-universe short with Steve and Bucky, so I was excited to hear that beloved lesfic author Jae had written a whole novel onRead More
Shira Glassman reviews Proper English by KJ Charles
I can think of no more convincing way to start my review/endorsement of KJ Charles’ new book Proper English than these words I added to a reblog of an aesthetic post on Tumblr: “I just read this yesterday! Folks, y’all know there’s an Edwardian lesbian romance that is also a country house murder mystery where the lesbians solve itRead More
Shira Glassman Recommends F/F Sci Fi You Can Buy Outside of Amazon
A few weeks ago, I wrote a post full of links to f/f fantasy books I personally recommend, populated with buy links other than Amazon for any of you who don’t want to stop there or at least looking at cutting back on spending money there. I’d like to do another post like that, thisRead More

Cinnamon Blade keeps having to rescue Soledad Castillo, and with each rescue her attraction to the woman grows. Once she finally finds an appropriate setting to ask her out, things start to get crazy. Or, really, crazier.

Shira Glassman reviews “More than Anything” by Eden French (Queerly Loving Volume 2)
I’d like to recommend the YA dystopian short story “More than Anything” by Eden French, which kicks off Queer Pack’s Queerly Loving vol. 2. There are other stories about bi and lesbian women in the issue, but I’m not finished reading it yet and I didn’t want to wait til I finished the book before tellingRead More
Megan G reviews “Wet Nails” by Shira Glassman
Adina Greenberg is taking a small break from her life as a grad student to spend a night watching movies starring her biggest Hollywood crush: Rose Hamilton. Rose Hamilton was a star in the 1950’s, and is definitely dead. Yet, she somehow also manages to step right out of Adina’s television set and into herRead More
Susan reviews Fearless by Shira Glassman
Fearless by Shira Glassman is a short and sweet romance about a newly-out divorced woman, her crush on a music teacher at her daughter’s school, and falling back in love with music. I quite liked this one! The story takes place over two days of rehearsals for a high-school music event, where Lana’s daughter isRead More
Danika reviews Knit One, Girl Two by Shira Glassman
I feel a little bit silly reviewing Knit One, Girl Two, because what can I say that hasn’t been said before? Especially considering that this is a novella! So consider this less of a review, and more of a reminder that this sweet little novella exists (and that you can get it for about $2!) ThisRead More
