I’m proud to say that your very own Sistahs on the Shelf has gotten a mention at After Ellen, the wildly popular lesbian visibility website.
Last month, AE columnist Linda Villarosa wrote about the plight of black lesbian literature, sighting how little exposure we get surrounding novels about our lifestyle.
“Read any good erotica lately? Probably not if you’re looking for African-American lesbian love,” Villarosa wrote.
I emailed her about Sistahs on the Shelf, making her aware that there was a source for black lesbians to read books for us and by us.
And she gave my site the greatest compliment, calling it “wonderful, thoughtful, thorough.”
Many thanks to Linda, and the women who also suggested the site to her.
I’m glad After Ellen noted your site. Sistahs was the only lesbian book review site I found when I went hunting for one recently – thank buddha you’re out there! And you’re brilliant!
