Horror that Lingers: We Came to Welcome You by Vincent Tirado Review

February 5, 2025 by Susanne Salehi

Mesmerizing, sickening, echoing-hole-in-your-stomach, roller coaster lurch of a creeping inferno: Vincent Tirado’s We Came to Welcome You: A Novel of Suburban Horror is all that and more. Released in the last quarter of 2024, to the tune of “The Other Black Girl meets Midsommar,” the book takes the banal normalcy of racism and colonialism and twists it until itsRead More

A Sciencey Sapphic Read: Rani Choudhury Must Die by Adiba Jaigirdar

December 11, 2024 by Caelin

This story follows Rani and Meghna, ex-best friends who find out they’re dating theRead More

You Need to Read Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo

February 25, 2024 by Danika Ellis

Buy this from Bookshop.org to support local bookstores and the Lesbrary! I’m embarrassed to admit I only just read this for the first time. I’ve read every other Malinda Lo book.
