Abigail's review of Hungerstone 4/5: A slow-burn feminist rage/revenge book (feat. sapphic vampires!!!) Okay, so ‘Hungerstone’ really had me in a chokehold - but also, like, a very slow chokehold? I’m honestly torn; I wanted to...

At first, I was counting the pages, waiting for it to be over. But by the time I turned the last one, I was satisfied — and somehow still “hungry” for more…

This book isn’t perfect. I thought the prose can get a bit self-indulgent. The pacing is... a lot. But the payoff? The message? The power? Chef’s kiss.

I want every woman to read this and feel seen, feel angry, feel empowered!!

Abigail's review of A Curious Journey (Murder Under the Gum Trees, #3) 4/5: "Having a secret from Bess was bad enough. It had never occurred to her that Bess might be keeping a secret of her own.” Okay, wow. This was one hell of a journey! Before even opening this book,...

“Having a secret from Bess was bad enough. It had never occurred to her that Bess might be keeping a secret of her own.”

This was one hell of a journey; had me hooked until the early hours of the morning!!

‘She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat’

Is this the greatest yuri manga of all time? I'm only two volumes in, but I can already tell it might be the best I'll ever read! 😭

Nonetheless, the story gave me exactly what I was looking for: a light and sweet romance between two adult women (early and late 20s), something I don’t come across often in the world of yuri manga!

But the main reason I can’t give this book more than three stars is the uncomfortable incestuous relationship between the half-sisters, Ashima and Sakura, which really didn’t and will never sit well with me.

As for the secondary characters, I thought that Ashima’s story arc was pretty good. But while Touko, the antagonist, was certainly effective in being annoying, I found her character’s actions to be underexplained, which made her “redemption” hard for me to accept.

I really enjoyed the romance between the two protagonists, Rin and Mayumi—their relationship felt sweet and genuine! But a lot of the charm in this book comes from the adorable three-year-old, Hinata-chan (plus the extra dose of cuteness provided by the cat living in the villa)!

I suddenly found myself back to reading yuri manga series—not that I’m complaining. 🤭 After rereading one of my favorite yuri series, ‘Kase-san and Yamada,’ I just finished reading ‘Days of Love at Seagull Villa,’ a completed three-volume series, for the first time.

My rating: 3 out of 5 stars

If you’re new to reading Sapphic fiction or haven’t read this series yet, consider this your sign to dive in! The extensive research the author @jaeauthor.bsky.social has put into this story is truly impressive and will undoubtedly blow your minds in the most poignant yet beautiful way possible! 🥹

Just finished reading this latest gem by @leewinteroz.bsky.social for the second time! I guess, I enjoyed being inside the heads of the characters so much that I’m not ready to let go of them just yet!! 😁

And Otillie Zimmermann deserves all the best beaches and Mai Tais in the world, the grandest fish aquarium with the most beautiful fishes in it, and just the best life on a Pacific island with the most exquisite woman she’s ever met!!! 🏝️🍹🐠🔥💋

I’m not a huge sci-fi fan… Thankfully, I didn’t have to be like well-versed in sci-fi to love this book!

Helen’s House by #MaggieSims - 3 out of 5 stars

If you're looking for a short, satisfying Regency romance with a bit of heat, this novella may just fit the bill!

Hæra and Madeleine's sprawling, epic romance is—quite literally—legendary. Get ready (you won't be ready!) to laugh a little, to sob a lot, & to fall head over heels in love along with them 🌊🐎🔥
