Here’s another mini-review of a book I recently reviewed for OnlineBookClub.org. Unfortunately, my book review for the site wasn’t officially published, but I decided to write up a mini-review anyway.
Genre: Fantasy/Romance
Themes: Good vs. Evil, Relationships, Love, Family, LGBT
~ The Good ~
- Likable main characters
- Having two lesbian married couples was refreshing to read
- Sweet elf characters
- The balance between supportive and not supportive of lesbian relationships were realistic
~ The Not-So Good ~
- Perspective switching was confusing, at times
- Several secondary characters were forgettable
- Some of the humor was oddly placed, making it off-putting
- Errors were found throughout
- Fantasy elements weren’t always clear
Perhaps those who don’t mind the above mentioned “not-so-good” parts and who are pro-LGBT community would enjoy this.
Was this a book of my choosing or one for review?

Wonderful mini review, Heidi! I like this format as it lets me know exactly what I would enjoy and what I would not in a very concise way.
I’m sorry your review wasn’t featured, it’s their loss! 😉

Thank you, Sophie! This format definitely makes it easier for me to share the official reviews I do for OnlineBookClub. Having to write two different reviews of the same book was a bit much, and I didn’t want to create a blog post with just a link to my official review (for those that do get published), so I thought this was a good compromise.
No worries about my review not being published. It’s happened a few times, but you’re right, it’s their loss. 😉
