A good fantasy debut story
Review of Traitors of the Black Crown by Cate Pearce This was a good fantasy story. This was a book I was really excited to read until I noticed the early reviews. I was seeing all these low stars and DNF’s, so my heart sunk and I went into this read with low expectations, but […]
This book was even better than I had expected
Review of Like Other Girls by Britta Lundin I loved this! I had high hopes for this book but it was even better than I had expected. I’m actually surprised that it’s not getting more of that YA hype and that more people aren’t talking about it. Hopefully, that will change when this releases in […]
A very good compilation of novellas with butch/femme romances
Review of Opposites Attract: Butch/Femme Romances by Aurora Rey, Meghan O’Brien and Angie Williams This is a compilation of three novellas by these BSB authors under the common theme of butch/femme romances. I jumped at the chance to read something by Meghan O’Brien after so long since her last book, to sample the work of […]
An entertaining sapphic version of The Da Vinci Code
Review of A Woman to Treasure by Ali Vali This was a very entertaining read. This is like the sapphic version of The Da Vinci Code. If you enjoyed that book, chances are really high you will enjoy this. Vali was able to do what Brown did and weave fact and fiction together to make […]
A fun and tender sapphic retelling of ‘Anastasia’
Review of How to Find a Princess by Alyssa Cole Makeda may not know what she wants from life but she knows exactly what she doesn’t want, and that’s being a princess. The family folklore according to which her grandmother had a fling with the prince of the tiny kingdom of Ibarania was fun to […]
A guilty pleasure for Brit Ryder’s fans
Review of Not Guilty by Brit Ryder Since I read Shameless, the erotica novella by Brit Ryder, a pen name of lesbian fiction author Kris Bryant, I was anxiously waiting for another one. Four years later, not only Ms. Ryder is back, but we are lucky to have a full-length novel. Claire Weaver is determined […]
A sweet yet multilayered romance
Review of Change of Plans by KJ As I was starting KJ’s new novel, I joked that her books were always good, and easy to review. Ugh. I was absolutely right about the good part but the easy to review? Not so much. This book messed with my head. It’s not a difficult book, it’s […]

A good BDSM romance with a disappointing narration
Review of Mine by Kim Hartfield, Audiobook narrated by Violet Woods This is the second book I listen to in a relatively short period that begins with a city girl needing a change in life, applying to work on a farm and unexpectedly finding love. The first one was Must Love Chicken by Jea Hawkins. That’s […]
