Queerly Beloved: The Joy Of Sensible Love Starter Pack
A list of happy, healthy, queer romances: the people are generally nice and sensible, the occasional PITA are few, definitely not evil, and put in their place sooner rather than later; problems are solved with a calm and clear head, communication gaps are few and short. If you need a balm for your spirit and experience the joy of love for a bit, here is your list.
🔗Here are my blurbs for the books, and my suggested reading order. Almost all are sapphic.
If I Could Make A Quest: Sapphics Across Genres
Note: The Sapphic story in The Revanche Cycle tetralogy (Winter's Reach) continues in the Wisdom's Grave trilogy (Sworn To The Night), which also has the final HEA. However the two series can be read independently of each other.
... And They Lived Happily Ever After
Books with sapphic relationships where they both live, and/or have a happy ending. This collection of books has been recommended to me based off of a post I made in the sapphic across genres forum. This is made in order to try combat the media's tendencies of killing off the sapphics (when they actually do decide to give us representation). please be aware that I haven't read most of these, so they may not be entirely accurate to the list title. I am open to any suggestions as well!

Old School Sapphic Romance
Being part of a sapphic book review podcast and running a few different review sites focused specifically on published and unpublished stories, I've read so many older books and femslash. I've forgotten how good some of them were, even though they may be dated. I would love to have younger generations be exposed to these books. And it's also for all us oldies who still have our favorites pop into our heads and make us smile. I hope this list rekindles a love for some of the founding members of modern sapphic romance.
Sapphic Reads for Mental Hugs aka The Funk List
Been reading WLW romances for a few decades now and there are many that have touched me enough that I keep a list of rereads for when I need a mental hug/brain candy/am in a nasty funk or depressed. Since I'm an emotional reader as well as one who values an editor and proofreader, these books may be very well written or technical pieces of poo. But I love them and you might, too.
