REVIEW: “Moonlight Avenue” by Gerri Hill
Whew! It has been nearly 11 months since I’ve written a review. Gotta say…that’s a long time. And it isn’t because I haven’t been reading. No, no. I have been reading. I’ve just been going back to some of my old, comfort books. Recently, however, I have fallen into some of the newer 2019 releases.…

REVIEW: Thorn by Anna Burke
After reading and reviewing Anna Burke’s debut novel, Compass Rose, I was really excited to see what she had up her sleeve for her sophomore offering. I knew it was too soon for a sequel to Compass Rose – though I really can’t wait for that sequel – and I was aware that she had a few…

REVIEW: 2° by Bev Prescott
It’s been four years since Bev Prescott has published a book. That book was Blowback and it was pretty amazing. Needless to say, I’ve been anxiously waiting for Prescott’s next offering. We’d been hearing about it for a while. Prescott teased us as we waited – updates, excerpts, cover reveals, etc. It was maddening, I say! Maddening!…

REVIEW: A Proper Cuppa Tea by KG MacGregor
I was introduced to KG MacGregor’s writing back in the heyday of the Xenaverse. Her fan fiction was/is some of the best out there. Luckily for all of us, she worked on those stories, expanded them, fixed them up, and got them published. And now, we have MacGregor’s 25th published novel. She is the embodiment…

REVIEW: My Lady Lipstick by Karin Kallmaker
Karin Kallmaker has often been called “The Queen of Lesbian Romance.” Of her twenty-eight published novels, I’ve read twenty of them. So, I have a pretty solid basis for saying the title is well deserved. (Three of those books are on my “comfort” pile – I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve read them.)…

REVIEW: Love All by Rachel Spangler
Facebook informed me that today is my “Friendversary” with Rachel Spangler. We have been connected on Facebook for 10 years. Since I’ve been on Facebook for 10 years and a few weeks, this makes Rachel one of my first contacts on the social media platform. I’m not sure what made us connect. I can’t remember…

REVIEW: Seven Shores Romance Series by Melissa Brayden
I usually will write reviews one book at a time. After all, that’s how we read books most of the time, right? Oh, sure. There are folks out there who will have two or three books going at once. But, often those books are completely unrelated. A biography while commuting on the train or bus.…

REVIEW: Beowulf for Cretins: A Love Story by Ann McMan
If you don’t know Ann McMan, you’re really missing out, my friends. She’s a rather lovely woman. Intelligent. Kind. Funny. An all-around great broad. (And I use the term “broad” in the very best sense of the word.) If you are an avid fan of lesbian literature – like I am – then you’ve seen…

REVIEW: Compass Rose by Anna Burke
Three years ago this month, a good friend passed away. Sandra Moran was an exceptionally gifted writer. She really wanted to raise the bar for lesbian-themed writing. With the permission and assistance of her widow, I helped start the Sandra Moran Scholarship for the Golden Crown Literary Society’s Writing Academy. The scholarship covers full tuition…

REVIEW: The Shape of You by Georgia Beers
*I was provided a free download of The Shape of You by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to Bold Strokes Books for affording me this opportunity.* It’s been a long time since I’ve written a review. Heck, it’s been a long time since I’ve read something new. I’ve been spending the last many…
