every struggled to find actual lesbian/sapphic books when at the library or bookstore? so did I!

bc of said struggle, I started to curate a personal list of books that either has lesbian MCs and/or featured a primary sapphic romance.

i haven't read all of these, but I do try my diligence in confirming that they meet the above perimeters, since many books claim to be sapphic when they're not. this is an ever updating list, only fiction for now!

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.

Intersectionality, baby! Disability includes many conditions, including - but not limited to - physical disabilities, chronic illnesses, psychiatric disabilities, sensory disabilities, and neurodivergence.

All the lesbians books I can find. If you have any book you want me to add please comment ❤️

in honor of disability pride month, here is a series on the colours of the flag! our fifth colour on this flag is red, which represents any and all physical disabilities. examples of physical disabilities include cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, celiac disease, dwarfism, diabetes, wheelchair users, polio, asthma, muscular dystrophy, cancer, scoliosis, ALS, arthritis and many more. books within this list will be both fiction and non-fiction. as always, feel free to comment any you recommend!

I hate the term “reverse age gap” because age shouldn’t be gendered. in this list, you will find books where SHE is the older one 😏

please, as always, send any and all suggestions my way 😇

Much like my Sapphic Fantasy list, these are all the books that I've saved from TikTok before deleting it in the hopes of reading them one day. Feel free to comment any that you'd like added!

these book titles are all recognizable song lyrics! (though some have adjusted a word or two)

as always, suggestions are welcome!

Any form of sapphic or w|w romance <3

Book with main characters that are disabled. Both physical and mental included. Eg chronic/terminal illness, physical disabilities, mental illness, neurodivergance, addiction, injury and injury recovery, symptoms causing health issues etc. Doesn't have to be a diagnosed condition. Not necessarily by authors with shared experiences. Books any be any genre. Added only 1st book of series unless there are different characters.

Feel free to leave suggestions in the comments! No "magic cure" books.

sapphic reads i've read or on my tbr! mostly fantasy/scifi and contemp, some hisrom and nonfic 📚

trans rep books (including non binary)

8+ year age gap romance novels

your fave iconic lesbian books were written by bi+ authors!!!

mostly to oppose the erasure of essential bisexual participation in lesbian literature and misinformation that bi+ women broadly prefer mlm to wlw. most of these authors have several sapphic books so make sure to check out the rest! many are also nonbinary, trans and/or on the aro/ace spectrums so please be mindful of their pronouns, labels (or lack thereof) and gender identities. suggestions welcomed!

the queer romance and fantasy books that are on my tbr (and that i love)

This collection features contemporary sapphic romances where age is just a number and connection is everything.

This list features book covers illustrated or designed by New York-based artist Vi-An Nguyen. Her work boasts bold typography, minimalist illustrations, and bright, contracting colours on beautifully textured backgrounds. Her cartoons are often featured in The New Yorker.
