Looking for book recs!
Does anyone have any recs for good lesbian/queer women romance? Or mysteries? I've got a craving and I don't want to resort to my mom's stash of Lynn Kurland/Loretta Chase/Etc. They never satisfy, you know?
Things I've tried and didn't like: Radclyffe's work, Laurie R. King's work, Greetings From Jamaica, Wish You Were Queer, Stay.
Things I've tried and liked: Tipping the Velvet and Fingersmith, the Jane Bond books, a bunch (comparatively speaking) of SFF that doesn't quite apply.
I am also open to femslash fic recs (outside of Devil Wear's Prada fandom)!
When I'm rich and famous I'm going to spend my time writing trashy lesbian romances, just so they'll exist.

Barbara Wilson? I read them in the UK in the 1980s and early 90s when they were published by Virago and the Women's Press. The Pam Nilsen ones are set in the US and are a bit more earnest than the Cassandra Reilly ones. The latter are funny and feature a globetrotting translator detective. I'd start with Gaudi Afternoon (set in Barcelona).
Also Val McDermid's Lindsay Gordon mysteries, again from the 1990s.
