A promising debut but I was expecting a bit more
Review of The Delicate Things we Make by Milena McKay I’ve been hearing good things about this book so I’ve decided to drop everything else and read it. This is McKay’s debut novel just published last month (January 2021) and she has already published a second book, in this case, a novella, called The Perfect […]
An excellent debut romance with a #MeToo intrigue
Review of The Delicate Things We Make by Milena McKay Another very promising debut! We may not be living in the most joyful, comfortable world right now, but good books make everything better and I feel very lucky that I get to read so many of them. Beggars can’t be choosers and when she’s asked […]
Review of ‘Scent’ by Kris Bryant, Audiobook
Review of ‘Scent’ by Kris Bryant, audiobook narrated by Brittni Pope This is another installment in Kris Bryant’s Sensory series (not formally a series but considered as such by the author) of all standalone books formed by ‘Taste’, ‘Touch’, ‘Listen’ and now ‘Scent’.

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.

‘The First Love’ is a wonderful lesbian debut book
Review of ‘The First Love’ by Erinne Bates ‘The First Love’ by Erinne Bates is a wonderful lesbian debut book by an indie writer. I always applaud their bravery for going the self-publishing route because it sure isn’t the easy way. But I love and support the independent writers because they can surprise you with […]
An enjoyable lesbian friends-to-lovers romance with a little family drama
Review of ‘Hero(ine) Addict’ by Blythe H. Warren This was an enjoyable lesbian friends-to-lovers romance. I really liked Warren’s ‘Bait and Switch’, so I was happy to see her come out with a new book. I actually didn’t even look at the blurb since I knew I wanted to read this because it was written […]
I’m not a fan of lesbian historical fiction books but this is a gem
Review of ‘The Lady’s Guide to Celestial Mechanics’ by Olivia Waite, Audiobook narrated by Morag Sims What a fantastic story. I’m not a fan of lesbian historical fiction books because they normally portray hard times to be a woman, let alone a lesbian, but this one is a gem. It is as feel-good as it […]

A solid lesbian book series with an age gap romance
Review of ‘Inked with a Kiss’ by Jennie Davids I read ‘Inked with a Kiss’ (Book 2 in the ‘Thorn & Thistle’ Series) by Jennie Davids without reading the first book but it turned out to be fine. Whatever I might have missed will not be for long because I liked this one more than […]
