Homebodies by Tembe Denton-Hurst, narrated by Marcella Cox
A very powerful debut As is too often the case (why?), the synopsis gives too much away, so do yourself a favour and don’t read it. Or forget it. Because if you expect it to be only the start of the story, you’ll be disappointed, the main events are all there. On the surface, Mickey […]
Charm City by Monica Mccallan, narrated by Lori Prince
An entertaining and low-angst romance Monica McCallan’s stories are like warm hugs to the soul, they are normally low-angst, steamy, funny, and sweet, all in a well-written package. However, I have to admit that it took me ages to engage with Charm City as I couldn’t connect with one of the mains. So much so […]
Future Wife by Nicole Pyland, narrated by Blair Baker
An entertaining time travel romance I haven’t read much by Nicole Pyland, not sure why, but she’s an established Sapphic fiction author and I liked the little I read. I’m not a fan of time travel stories but I really enjoyed One Day You’ll Leave Me by Debra Flores so I had high expectations for […]
Forget Me Not by Alyson Derrick, narrated by Natalie Naudus
Emotional Ride! I loved the new release Forget Me Not written by Alyson Derrick and beautifully narrated by Natalie Naudus. I had pre-ordered the audio because I enjoyed the last book (She Gets the Girl) that Alyson Derrick co-wrote with her wife Rachael Lippincott. Forget Me Not is a sapphic YA romance about two 18 […]
The Loudest Silence by Olivia Janae, narrated by Abby Craden
An opposites-attract romance featuring the world of music and deafness This story (as it happens with many books published by Ylva) was first conceived as fan fiction, more specifically, a Swan Queen alternative universe. Originally published in 2015, it’s been released as a book in 2022 and this year as an audiobook narrated by Abby […]
The Raven and the Banshee by Carolyn Elizabeth, narrated by Mary Sarah
A pirate story with twists and hurdles Fifteen years after being lost at sea, Branna Kelly is the captain of her own ship and intent on avenging her parents’ death at the hands of pirates. Her thirst for revenge grows tenfold when her crew boards a seemingly abandoned ship and finds numerous bodies and one […]
Out on good behavior by Dahlia Adler, narrated by Samantha Summers
An entertaining story with a very good narration This is the second book I read by this author, the first one was Home Field Advantage, a YA sports book. This novel is older (2016) but the audiobook version has just been released so I decided to give it a go. Out on Good Behavior is […]
The Carlisle Series by Roslyn Sinclair, narrated by Abby Craden
A great audiobook version for a fantastic series Unlike many other reviewers in our genre, I’m not a follower of fan fiction. But for as long as I’ve been reviewing Sapphic books I was told that I shouldn’t miss Telanu’s Truth and Measure. I admit that I was put off by 271,584 reasons, the number of […]
Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail (Bright Falls #2) by Ashley Herring Blake, narrated by Kristen DeMercurio
The perfect romcom to get the year started Almost a year ago, I read my first book by this author, Delilah Green Doesn’t Care, and I almost immediately knew it would make my end-of-the-year list. I was very much looking forward to the next book, Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail, but for some reason, while the […]
