Let April Daniels introduce you to the most badass transgender lesbian superhero you’ve ever met. [Book Review]
If there’s one thing I’ve made perfectly clear in the last few years, it’s that superheroes just aren’t my thing. No offense meant to people who love them, because I know you all are vast in number and fierce in your loyalties, but I just… rarely get into superhero stories. For one, I find them […]

If The Labyrinth and the Harry Potter universe had a baby… [Book Review]
Have you ever gotten the chance to read a book that seemed like it would be two of your favorites melded together? That’s how I felt when I signed on to read the first in a new fantasy series recently.

She’s a real lady-killer, but she doesn’t know why. [Book Review]
I don’t know where I have been (under a rock, maybe?), but I haven’t found a lot of good LGBT books that aren’t about love and/or tragedy based on gayness, so it’s been nice to read some of these new books that have LGBT main characters that are in different genres. This was one that […]

‘Tween friendship and a gender place. [Book Review]
Adolescence is a hard time for everyone, you can’t deny it. You’re somewhere between a kid and an adult, expected to walk the thin line between obedience to elders and responsibility for one’s own actions.

A complicated routine isn’t the hardest thing these two will learn. [Book Review]
I love looking through the selection of books Netgalley offers. There are so many intriguing descriptions, covers, and titles in all genres, and I often request more than one (sometimes four or five) at a time based on those. Today’s book is one that immediately caught my attention. Anyone who follows my blog regularly knows […]

When BFFs turn lovers, not everyone is keen on the idea. [Book Review]
Though most readers probably know me from my horror and thriller stories, I have to admit that I’m a sucker for a sappy romance. (I’ve even tried my hand at writing a few, and will definitely be writing more, along with horror, thriller, science fiction, etc., in the future.) So when lesfic author E. A. […]

Just Juliet by Charlotte Reagan [Book Review]
This book cover caught my eye right away. I love the rainbow and I love the obvious depiction of love between two girls. Despite being an out and proud queer, I didn’t read a lot of LGBTQ fiction until I was an adult, so I’m still catching up on everything I feel like I should […]

Crossing Genres, Being Authentic, and the Creative Urge
I write a lot, and I talk almost as much. Is it an incessant need to fill the silence or a wish to be heard that drives me? Is it money, fame, or notoriety? Yes and no. I crave to be heard as much as the next guy, and I can’t pay my bills in […]

It’s Official: Love Wins!
My wife called me as I was walking in the door from grocery shopping this morning. She sounded weepy as she told me to turn on the television. “What channel?” I asked. “All of them. It’s on all of them.” I flipped it on, and what I saw nearly knocked me off my feet. I […]
