Queen by J. S. Fields

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 […]

In the Long Run by Haley Cass, narrated by Anastasia Watley

In the Long Run by Haley Cass

A slow-burn romance with a lovely narration Haley Cass is one of my go-to Sapphic authors since I’ve read her debut novel Those Who Wait, which was one of my favourite books of 2020. I was really looking forward to reading this novel but unfortunately, it coincided with one of the worst moments of my […]

Like a House on Fire by Lauren McBrayer

Like a House on Fire by Lauren McBrayer

This was a pretty good read I liked it quite a bit but it does have its bumps. I think what I enjoyed the most is that while I found some problems in the story, the actual writing style was really nice. McBrayer sure can write and I was surprised by how fast I flew […]

Truth and Measure by Roslyn Sinclair

Truth and Measure by Roslyn Sinclair

This series is going to be one of the big hits of 2022 Unlike many other reviewers in our genre, I’m not a follower of fan fiction. But for as long as I’ve been reviewing lesfic books I was told that I shouldn’t miss Telanu’s Truth and Measure. I admit that I was put off […]

She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott & Alyson Derrick

She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott

This was a lovely read This book reminded me of all the teenage rom-com movies I watched as a teenager, in the late 90s, except that the mains in this book are queer. I would have killed for a movie like this growing up in that time period. Anyway, the blurb mentions how this had […]

Chasing Dreams by A.L. Brooks

When I’m with you by Monica McCallan, narrated by Lori Prince

When I’m with you by Monica McCallan

An emotional rollercoaster of a book Monica McCallan is one of my go-to lesfic authors and Lori Prince is one of my favourite narrators. Join them together and it’s a day in lesfic paradise.

In the Shadow of Love by JE Leak

In the Shadow of the Past by J. E. Leak

A good second book in an exciting historical series In The Shadow of Love picks up not long after In The Shadow of the Past ended. While the first book introduced readers to the characters, the era, the context, the second one, as can be inferred from the title, focuses more on the relationship between […]
