Ellie is an adorkable genius, a brilliant researcher in biomedical engineering at MIT, whose idea of being social is sitting at the bar in her favourite pub, working on her PhD.

Queen of Hearts by Elna Holst
Sapphic fun under the Spanish Sun Queen of Hearts is Elna Holst’s first novella in a new series (From Sappho With Love) held together by a common theme: a chain of postcards sent from sapphic travellers across space and time. In the summer of 1972, twenty-one-year-old university undergrad Annette Thornton, aka Thorny Netty, finds herself […]
Every Version by Bryce Oakley
This was a sweet and cute read Due to time restrictions, I’m not sure how many books in the I Heart Sapphfic Pride Collection I will have time to read. I like 7 out of the 8 authors so it’s not an easy choice at all. I decided the best way to go was to […]
The Flying Mermaid by Eule Grey
A unique Young Adult novella I love Eule Grey’s style and I don’t know if I can explain what I love about it. All sorts of words come to mind: poetic, peculiar, epic. All sorts of images too. Fairytales, the original ones, the dark, sometimes scary ones, not the Disney versions. Georges Méliès’ movies. Salvador […]
Queen by J. S. Fields
An exciting new series by the author of the Ardulum trilogy I’m never going to look at rabbits the same way. Nor beetles but I don’t look at beetles much, I’m squeamish that way. I love Fields’ Ardulum books but I’m not going to lie, I didn’t enjoy Foxfire in the Snow as much, and […]
A Touch of Purple by Nita Round
I still love this series! I can’t believe this is book 6 (or book 8 if you count the two prequel novellas) already. The Towers of the Earth series has flown by and I know I will be crushed when it does actually end. I’m so connected to the characters that my reading year would […]
Howl by Lucy Bexley
A cute and funny story to get in the mood for Pride Okay, I started laughing as soon as I read the first sentence and only stopped here and there to feel emotional. Lucy Bexley really writes adorable characters, and I just want them to be happy. Clementine left her parents’ diner in Maine in […]
Home Field Advantage by Dahlia Adler
A cute YA romance in a book that was a little heavier than expected This was my second read by Adler, and I’m happy to say that I liked it much more than her other, Cool for the Summer. While I enjoyed the feel of Adler’s previous writing, I just didn’t enjoy many of her […]
In The Mirror by Lise Gold and Madeleine Taylor
An empowering romance on body positivity Edging is the name of the game. Both MCs know they’ll end up having sex. They both want it, they both know quickly the attraction is mutual. They also both keep stepping back when the other comes too close. There’s no real will they/won’t they suspense as the reader […]
