This was by far my least favorite of the series

Review of The Hellion’s Waltz by Olivia Waite I’m a big fan of the Feminine Pursuits series and was excited to read this third installment. While I did like it, I’m sorry to say that it was by far my least favorite of the series. This was a pandemic book and while I give authors […]
This historical mystery is a very exciting debut novel

Review of The Murder Next Door by Sarah Bell The Murder Next Door is Sarah Bell’s debut novel and what a debut it is! A historical mystery with a sapphic couple investigating and so much more. Ada Chapman is a painter and a sketch artist for the police. She lives with Louisa Knight, officially as […]
A good read with consistent pace and a decent romance

Review of Closeness by YL Wigman This was a pretty good read. I wasn’t blown away by it, but it kept my attention and I enjoyed it. It had a good consistent pace, some interesting storytelling, and a decent romance. This is my second book by Wigman and this was a much better fit for […]
The Ruthless Lady’s Guide to Wizardry by C.M. Waggoner

Review of ‘The Ruthless Lady’s Guide to Wizardry’ by C.M. Waggoner This was an oddball book but I enjoyed it anyway. I don’t get to read a lot of historic fantasy so I’m always excited to read them when I can. This has a Victorian feel but with witches, trolls, necromancers, and an animal shifter. […]
An exciting wlw historical fiction book

Review for ‘The Devil Behind Us’ by S. C. Wilson, audiobook narrated by Elizabeth Saydah The Devil Behind Us is the sequel to The Devil Between Us and definitely not a standalone. It picks up right where book 1 ended and is just as exciting as that first wlw historical fiction book was (without the […]
Another high-quality lesbian historical-fiction book by Saracen

Review of ‘To Sleep With Reindeer’ by Justine Saracen This was another high-quality lesbian historical-fiction book by Saracen. I’m actually pretty late to the Saracen party, only having read her last three new releases, but her good books have helped her to become an auto-read author for me. I used to worry that because she […]
A very good wlw historical fiction novel set in the 1980s

Review of ‘Invisible as Music’ by Caren J. Werlinger, audiobook narrated by Ann Etter This is a very good wlw historical fiction novel set in the US in the 1980s during the first presidency of Ronald Reagan. I wouldn’t set it firmly in the romance category as it mostly emphasises on a strong platonic bond […]
A lesbian historical fiction audiobook that I won’t forget

Review of ‘Cantoras’ by Carolina de Robertis, Audiobook narrated by the author I admit that I had this lesbian historical fiction audiobook on my list to listen for a good while but I couldn’t find the right frame of mind to enjoy it. I knew it wasn’t an easy listening plus I’m not a fan […]
