Review of ‘An outsider inside’ by R. J. Samuel.
In the run-up to Ireland’s referendum on same-sex marriage, Irish-Indian lesbian activist Jaya Dillon has to confront her unresolved issues on bisexualty and her mixed-race origin. When she discovers a manuscript while tidying a rental house, she finds herself emotionally invested in search for its disappeared author. This is not a typical romance and definitely […]
Review of ‘The power of Mercy’ by Fiona Zedde.
This is book number 2 of Ylva’s excellent series ‘The superheroine collection’, which fills a gap in lesfic and fiction in general. Technically a novella, this book could have done better with a few more pages developing the plot further, specially in the murder investigation in which there is some superficial description but not much […]
Review of ‘Sins of Our Fathers’ by A. Rose Mathieu
This is the debut novel by this author who has delivered a page-turner packed of twists and turns with an unexpected ending. If you are interested in the romance aspect, unfortunately, there isn’t much of it. Moreover, the main characters don’t share much time in the plot together. However, I think the author is going […]
Review of ‘Into thin air’ by Jeannie Levig
I have mixed feelings about this book and after reading other reviews, if this was the author’s objective, then she achieved it. My main problem is that there are two parallel stories involving the three lead characters in this book: one a budding sweet romance between Hannah and Nikki, and the other the disturbing story […]
Review of ‘A quiet death’ by Cari Hunter
I didn’t want to read this book. Despite the fact that I’ve previously read a couple of Ms. Hunter’s books and loved them, I tend to avoid gruesome stories and I normally go for romances or light mystery / action books. However, after seeing so many good reviews about this series I decided to take […]
Review of ‘Rescue me’ by Michelle Teichman
‘Rescue me’ is one of those books that you start reading and after a couple of chapters you realise that it’s an engaging plot with credible characters all in a well written package. So all you have to do is find a cozy place, sit back and enjoy it. I was glad I started it […]
Review of ‘Requiem for immortals’ by Lee Winter
Requiem for immortals is definitely not your ordinary lesbian romance or even the usual mystery / thriller. It is part of the ‘Law series’ by Ylva publishers but very different from the rest. How so? To start with, it is not an easy read. However, I’m saying this as a compliment because this is a […]
Review of ‘Just enough light’ by AJ Quinn.
I’ve read other books by AJ Quinn and for me this author is a hit and miss. Overall, I found this book a bit unrealistic, I don’t want to enter in details but some scenes were hard to believe and that put me off. The main protagonist, Kellen, is a larger than life character who […]
Review of ‘Deception’ by VK Powell.
I’ve read a couple of books by this author which in my opinion were an average read so I didn’t have big expectations about this one. The main subject of this book, an undercover DEA agent who infiltrates a group of homeless in order to investigate a drug dealing ring, did not have much appeal […]
