Join the Frivolous Views Community
It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I have been busy with various projects and responsibilities, so I didn’t have much time to read and review. However, that has changed. I am back to reading and reviewing. AND I am expanding. I have decided to branch out to YouTube and Patreon. I have found that it…

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: 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.)…

In the mind of a reviewer
If you follow my blog at all, you know that I write a number of reviews. The majority are book reviews. I’ve always loved to read. I started reading on my own when I was around 3-years-old. No, really. I did. When I was 9, we lived about a block away from the public library.…

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: “Hello, Dolly!”
There are two reasons I saw Hello, Dolly! during its Chicago run. The least important of those two is that I’d never seen it on stage before. More importantly, however….BETTY BUCKLEY!! That’s right. Betty Friggin’ Buckley! You see, I’m kind of obsessed with Betty Buckley. It started when I was a kid watching Eight is Enough. Honestly, she…

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…
