Recs if you like House of Dusk...

in progress

Basically, a huge list of every book I ever heard features sapphic characters.

I have not read all of these, so I cannot be sure of the amount of the time on page of the sapphic characters or of the quality of the books.

Some of these I do not plan to read at all, since they are not my style. If you feel like a book doesn't belong here, let me know.

For my favs / read, check out my other lists & shelves.

Open to suggestions for more titles.

Don't shoot the messenger.

my personal wlw library so… a lot of classic lesbian lit, basically

A collection of sapphic fantasy books that I have seen recommended across tiktok

Exactly what it says on the tin, books that feature queer nuns (some Christian, some of a more fantastical variety)

Dystopian, Sci-fi, Space opera

These sapphic books come from all different genres, each one filling a past Sapphic September prompt plus several bonuses!! How many have you read?

Nothing better than a quick standalone romance between something long and serious 😏 In other words, if you’re already committed to six series but still need more excitement in your life 🤭

If you simply prefer to spend every night with another magical being that’s perfectly fine too 🤭💖

Romantasy standalones from YA to Dark Romance

books that as far as I know are sapphic in some way, that have come out either last year, this year, or next year

All books include main characters that are sapphic. This includes trans and non-binary lesbians

A list of Sapphic books released in 2025 that fall somewhere in the SFF genres

we owe lots of great butchfemme (and derivative masc/fem) rep to bi, pan, queer & unlabeled characters, often by bi+ authors! bi, aspec & trans folks are historically essential participants of butchfemme lesbian/sapphic/queer culture. these books have plurisexual character(s), sometimes through implied attraction transcending gender rather than explicit labels; this includes intersections with gender diversity and asexual/aromantic spectrums. check out my other list on bi butches/studs/mascs!

curated list of my fave fiction that have authentic and in-depth portrayals of the bi+ experience—often through intersections with gender expansiveness and the aromantic/asexual spectrums—as attraction that transcends gender, and/or the unique simultaneous embodiment of homosexuality and heterosexuality.

feminine old-timey fairytail-esque feelgood fantasy/historical fiction that defined girlhood

if only i knew straightness wasn’t a requirement in the kinds of books i loved. always updating with more! mostly angsty romance, instrospective scifi, cozy fantasy.

Because sometimes all I want is to feel the yearning of a thousand year old creature as they fall for the silly human girl.

Look at us through every step of History, on every continent and every shape. From distant past to looming future, queer people have been, are, and will be.

LGBTQ+ fantasy books with quests and adventures! There is no cozy fantasy here, but not all of it is epic or high fantasy

a diamond can never be too shiny ̊.⋆꒰১ ໒꒱⋆. ̊ i simply adore high-spirited, high-maintenance heroines. she doesn’t need to be able to swing a sword herself to deserve her handsome saviour! this is a very sapphic list simply because that’s what i read—all recommendations welcome!
