Nothing to Care About

Something to Talk About by Meryl Wilsner

May 28, 2020 by surebitch 2 Comments

I’m a cover whore. Oftentimes, it only takes a cute cover for me to buy a book. I know it’s a compulsion I should reign in, along with buying drinks because the can is adorable, but alas, I haven’t yet. When Something to Talk About popped up in my Goodreads feed, I was in love. My anticipation for the book was sky-high—finally a Sapphic book with a cover that made me swoon but that wasn’t about teenagers (nothing wrong with that, but I remained closeted […]

Ambushes Are Not Christmas Miracles

A Swedish Christmas Fairy Tale by A.E. Radley

February 13, 2020 by surebitch Leave a Comment

I’ve read quite a few of A. E. Radley’s books recently. I can happily say they are easy, breezy reads, but also interesting enough that while you can probably read this on your commute, the characters will make you want to stick around. Well, some of the characters, probably. Because the bad news is that I could barely make through one of these romantic stories without hating at least one of the women involved and wanting the other to stay alone. I’m pretty sure that’s […]

A choice between family and being your authentic self

Marriage of a Thousand Lies by SJ Sindu

June 16, 2019 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

Marriage of a Thousand Lies by SJ Sindu isn’t quite a romance but digs into what it means to love. Lucky marries her gay friend Kris to appease her family and remain accepted by her Sri Lankan immigrant community in Boston. A marriage of convenience that works well on the surface. Everyone believes she married for love and escaped the fate of an arranged one. Kris and Lucky can be who they are together in LGBTQ spaces, taking home whoever they want. But things get […]

A supernatural murder mystery

Iron & Velvet (Kate Kane Paranormal Investigator #1) by Alexis Hall

December 30, 2018 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

Iron & Velvet by Alexis Hall is a paranormal F/F romance mystery. I’m always up for anything paranormal with a broody detective, so this was right up my alley. Kate Kane is a private investigator for the supernatural underworld of London. Even though she has a fairy mother, she lives her life as a human, only calling on her untested powers for emergencies. The book opens with a werewolf’s murder outside an elite vampire club. Kate’s called onto the case by her ex-boyfriend Patrick who basically […]
