Recs if you like Dreadnought (Nemesis #1)...

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.

I tried to include most books I know or that have been recommended that either have transfem, transmasc or nonbinary main characters. I only add first in series!

i've included fiction books of all genres on this list! please recommend some more so i can add them!!

We're celebrating Trans Day of Visibility by sharing books with queer characters written by trans (transgender and non-binary) authors. (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

Ah yes, this ol' issue that has plagued librarians and bookstore clerks for decades.

And sometimes you find the right book, but... can you even call that shade blue?

some of these i've read personally, some i have just discovered but all of them sound like incredible reads so i figured i'd put them in a list to share with anyone interested! 🫂

superhero & supervillain stories!

(trying to highlight those outside of marvel, dc, and the other major franchises)

All of these are from the list that Texas lawmaker Matt Krause in October of 2021 tried and in many cases succeeded to get banned from classrooms and school libraries. There are quite a few interesting and odd choices in there which is part of why I wanted to share this list on here. Not necessarily recommendations but there are some pretty good books on here. As well as a lot of textbooks

Happy International Women's Day! Have a huge pile of our favorite books starring queer women (fiction and non-fiction!). (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

Books featuring gender diverse characters and/or by gender diverse authors. Trans rights are human rights!

Feel free to recommend titles!

Since comics can be a bit overwhelming to break into, I present a collection of (mostly) graphic novels to satisfy your superhero kick.

Mostly Marvel & DC properties, but open to other superhero (or villains) as well

In October 2021, Texas State Representative Matt Krause initiated an inquiry targeting a list of approximately 850 books in Texas public schools, alleging they could cause "discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress" regarding race or sex. The list disproportionately targeted LGBTQ+ topics, race/racism, and sex education.

This is my project to read through this list for myself - utilizing my local library system for access to these titles. Follow the journey or join along!

It's a list of of science fiction and fantasy books where at least one protagonist is a lesbian. I've read most of these.

let the girls kiss as queerly as possible --

not all of these are romance and most are from my tbr so they could not be sapphic and just, queer, but most of them should be

includes chapter books & graphic novels

Today is Superhero Day, so we made a list of books we love starring queer superheroes (with the understanding that sometimes the line between superhero and supervillain is razor thin...and that magical girls are a flavor of superhero...). (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

List of novels as in text novels about superheroes. Most of these are queer and indie. I haven't read all of these so if anything seems misplaced, feel free to comment
