Meagan Kimberly reviews Make You Mine This Christmas by Lizzie Huxley-Jones

December 31, 2022 by Lesbrarians

Christopher and Haf meet at a university Christmas party one night and after drunkenly kissing under the mistletoe, they’re mistaken for a couple. Rather than own up to the truth that they were simply strangers making out at a party, they go along with the idea. Haf agrees to fake date Christopher during the breakRead More

Danika reviews A Merry Little Meet Cute by Julie Murphy and Sierra Simone

December 24, 2022 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Note: This a HarperCollins title. The HarperCollins union has been on strike since November 10th, asking for better pay, more diversity initiatives, and union protections. Learn more at their site. I have never read (or watched) such a horny holiday romance. This is an M/F bisexual/bisexual romance thatRead More

Danika reviews Murder Most Actual by Alexis Hall

December 31, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Clue is my all-time favourite movie, and I’m a sucker for any kind of snowed in story, so when I heard the premise for Murder Most Actual, I was immediately hooked. It follows Liza and Hanna, who have booked a getaway in a fancy hotel in the Scottish Highlands to try to patch up theirRead More

Shana reviews Humbug by Amanda Radley

December 25, 2021 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Humbug is a quiet Christmas novel with an age gap romance. I found it a relaxing and wholesome read, but it’s an unbalanced workplace romance. The book struggled to decide if it wanted to focus on the characters’ careers, or their love story. Ellie is a brilliant statisticianRead More

Danika reviews Snow Falls by Gerri Hill

December 12, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Every year, I plan on spending December reading seasonal books: Christmas romances, wintry fantasy novels, snowed in stories, and so on. And every December, I find myself with an “urgent” TBR that pushes those books off my reading list. There are always ARCs to review, books to readRead More

Wintry Sapphic Reads to Cozy Up With

December 5, 2021 by Danika Ellis

It’s December, which means the time that I set aside my Autumnal horror and thriller books of months past in favour of some cozy, comforting seasonal reads! If you also like to theme your reading by season, I’ve picked out some great wintry seasonal sapphic reads. Some of these are Christmas-themed, I’ve got a coupleRead More

Marieke reviews The Winter Duke by Claire Eliza Bartlett

July 26, 2021 by Lesbrarians

This was a mildly frustrating read, and depending on what you’re looking for in your fantasy romance this may or may not be for you. In premise it’s relatively similar to Queen Of Ieflaria or Of Fire and Stars: a woman of royal heritage is expecting to marry a male royal of another country, butRead More

Sinclair reviews The Solstice Gift by Avery Cassell 

September 11, 2020 by Danika Ellis

The Solstice Gift by Avery Cassell is a queer love story in the best sense of the words. It doesn’t follow the traditional, heterosexual tropes of how the two characters meet and following them through their courtship, but comes in with the love story well under way, and continues with new and radical sexcapades thatRead More

One Walk in Winter by Georgia Beers

Mallory Lass reviews One Walk in Winter by Georgia Beers, narrated by Lori Prince

January 9, 2020 by Danika Ellis

One Walk in Winter is a workplace romance set in the fictional mountain town of Evergreen spanning three US winter holidays: Thanksgiving through New Years. There is something about a book set in a place where it snows that really gets me into that cozy winter mindset. Light on the angst and high on theRead More

Mallory Lass reviews Killer Instinct by Barbara Winkes

December 13, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Content warning: violence against women, murder of women, homophobic father, abandoned by father, alcohol abuse Unsolved serial murders committed by one, or maybe two people, will keep you guessing in this thriller that takes place in the dead of winter. Nothing like solving a murder over Christmas. It is low on holiday feels, and highRead More
