Customer Reviews

Excellent lesbian fiction

A wonderful and diverse mix of stories in one anthology. This book isn't breathless declarations and slurpy kissing, these stories are thoughtful, emotive, sometimes funny, sometimes wry, sometimes poignant, but always entertaining.Too many excellent stories to mention by name, but the women in all of them spring alive and shining from the pages. Whether they're accidentally nailed to the roof with a staple through their hand, exploring the tentative unfurling of lesbian desire, attending gay pride rallies, watching their lover on a Vancouver ferry, defrauding a bank, buying fish 'n chips in Sydney, or attending a wedding, these are real women and their stories touch the heart, the mind, and sometimes lower places!Kudos to Angela Brown for assembling such a rich cast in one book. Some names I knew, others were new to me, I'll look forward to the next one.

Took My Breath Away

This book really took my breath away. The first story in the book, Lucy Jane Bledsoe's "The Breath of Seals" was amazing...sweet, subtle, with believable characters I related to. There's something in this book for everyone, whether you're jaded about lesbian love, just starting a relationship, or are an old hat at the lesbian love game. The writing is top-notch and the stories aren't saccharine. Some of my favorite lesbian writers - including Karin Kallmaker and Leslea Newman - also have really lovely, well-written pieces in this book. Not fluff! The real stuff! Now I want to buy the 2003 volume. Also - look on the last page of the book. The editor is sooo cute!!
