Opening the Doors!
Hello to all and we’re officially opening the doors! Yes, what we have here my fellow readers and authors is a brand spanking new book review site. :-) It’s been about a month in the making as we built the foundation…then knocked down a few walls and built them up again. Our vision the entire time was to create a website that was both easy to read and easy to navigate and was a resource for readers interested in the GLBTQ genre.
You might be asking yourself right now, “Do we really need another review site?” Well of course my answer is yes and here’s why. There are absolutely a lot of review sites and blogs out there right now, but very few sites are focused solely on GLBTQ books. Of those that do review books in the GLBTQ category, the majority are reviewing solely books with gay male characters. Our goal for the site as a whole is to feature reviews of books from all facets of the queer rainbow: gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer and more. If it’s as queer as a three dollar bill, then it will fit in perfectly here.
With several years of reviewing experience between our reviewers, and even more years spent reading GLBTQ books, our goal is to share our thoughts and experiences with other readers as well as provide thorough, quality reviews. Added to that will be posts that cover a variety of topics such as in depth discussions of different publishers, the best and worst of ebook sellers, current trends in the market, and just about anything our brains feel the need to expound upon.
So welcome to all and hope you enjoy the new site!

Congratulations! I look forward to reading all the new reviews and your take on the GLBTQ stories that are out there!
Thanks so much Sean!! It’s been *a lot* of work to get the site up and running that’s for damn sure! I’d forgotten how much work it can be to start up a new website! LOL But it’s finally come together and I couldn’t be happier.
Now, finally I get to spend time actually reading! LOL

Congrats and looking forward to hearing about new books worth reading.
Thanks for stopping by!
Congrats and good luck.
I agree that the whole spectrum should be represented. Are you expanding genre-wise too, or only reading romance/erotica?

Thanks so much Angie! Oh we are most definitely expanding genre-wise as well. We will review any genre as long as it falls into the GLBTQ spectrum (even if you have to squint to see it).
I personally want reviews of books that are romance but non-erotica as well as reviews of non-fiction and mystery and horror… you name it and we’ll read it.
Thanks Angie! I can say also we are definitely expanding from romance/erotica. While we won’t completely stray from that, we have quite a number of reviews that run the gamut of the GLBT genre.
Congratulations on the new website, Kassa and Emily. It’ll go on my google reader feed so I can keep up with all that’s going on!
Thanks so much!
Hi Kassa and Emily
Congratulations on the new site. Looking forward to reading your reviews.
Thanks for stopping by Wave!! It’s definitely a *lot* of work to get a new site up and running, which I know you’re definitely well aware of, so I’m happy to finally see it live and be able to focus on reviews.

Thank you very much! Glad you like our reviews and are looking forward to reviews of older books as much as we are.
