Rachel Dawson: Neon Roses (2023, Hodder & Stoughton) 5 stars

Review of 'Neon Roses' from 'Storygraph'

5 stars

Sapphic love during the 80s miner's strike as rural Welsh valley girl Eluned falls for June, a punky dyke visiting with the LGSM. Eluned leaves the valleys behind for her lesbian awakening between the underworlds of Cardiff, Camden and Manchester. Meanwhile, her sister (much to her family's horror) marries an abusive policeman. If you love some period sapphic erotic romance, ACAB Thatcher bashing and punky 80s nightclubs then this is a good choice.
