“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
Amanda Clay reviews Femme by Mette Bach
Knowledge is power. Sofie, however, has always felt pretty powerless, at least when it comes to academics. She enjoys school—playing soccer and hanging out with her cute, popular boyfriend Paul. And even though she and her single mom don’t have a lot of extra money, their home is loving and stable. But now, closeRead More
Rachel reviews Tell Me Again How A Crush Should Feel by Sara Farizan
For fans of lesbian chick-lit, Tell Me Again How A Crush Should Feel by Sara Farizan is a funny, entertaining read, and delves into what it is like to be a lesbian of color. Leila Azadi, a high school junior at Armstead Academy, is Iranian-American; the only one in her school, in fact. Most ofRead More
Danika reviews Lost Boi by Sassafras Lowrey
I don’t even know where to start in describing how much I loved this. I am tempted to just tell you “This is a queer punk retelling of Peter Pan.” If that intrigues you (as it did me), don’t hesitate. It will be all you dreamed of and more. And if that doesn’t interest you–ifRead More
Rachel reviews The Year They Burned the Books by Nancy Garden
Nancy Garden, author of the classic Annie on my Mind, wrote another poignant novel about lesbians. This time, she touched on controversy about homosexuality, censorship, and free speech. The Year They Burned The Books is that novel. Published in 1999, this story still rings true today about how far censorship and prejudice can go. TheRead More
Danika reviews Autobiography of a Family Photo by Jacqueline Woodson
I recently read my first Jacqueline Woodson book, The House You Pass On the Way, and really enjoyed it. I was expecting Autobiography of a Family Photo–same author, similar size, both with queer content–to have a lot in common with that book, but this turned out to be a completely different reading experience. Autobiography of a FamilyRead More
Rachel reviews Ash by Malinda Lo
Anyone into lesbians living in a fantasy/medieval world should pick up this Cinderella retelling, Ash by Malinda Lo. Having read it twice, I’m very impressed with the details and the culture of this beautiful novel. In a fantasy world, young Aisling “Ash” has lost her mother. Before she can properly grieve, her father leaves onRead More
Audrey reviews Ash by Malinda Lo
Oh, wow! I’ve finally gotten to my first Malinda Lo book. It will not be the last. Ash is a retelling of Cinderella. It’s twisty, it has a fair amount of the fair folk, and it has some great love interests. It’s also one of those books I knew would already have been reviewed aRead More
Amanda Clay reviews Everything Leads To You by Nina LaCour
Sometimes falling in love is easy. Emi knows a lot about love. She loves movies, she loves her job as a set designer. She loves her brother and her best friend Charlotte. She loves L.A. and helping people and solving mysteries. She even loves the ex who keeps breaking her heart. All these loves comeRead More
Danika reviews M+O 4EVR by Tonya Cherie Hegamin
This book was not what I thought it was going to be. It’s a young adult novel, and it’s only 165 pages long, but it’s not a light read. Because this is such a short book, I feel like it’s easy to spoil, so I’ll keep the description short. This is about O (Opal), who’sRead More
