Recs if you like Mistress of Lies...

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!

When the love story and the world building go hand in claw. For series, only the first book is listed.

Works in the speculative, fantasy, science fiction, and horror genres by authors who are not cisgender! Two spirit, nonbinary, trans, genderfluid, and other gender diverse authors count!

Stories featuring queer, polyam main characters! Mostly adult books, but contains some YA as well. Although the book doesn't have to have a heavy romantic focus, the polyam rep must be in the MCs, not in side characters. 🫶 (Note: some books in this list are series starters that don't contain polyamory until after the first book!)

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

Novels with throuples, polycules, best found family romance vibes

Romantasy and romantic/erotic fantasy reads starring queer characters! (Recs are welcome, but I'd like to encourage uplifting queer authors first and foremost! For series, I'll just put book 1 unless they can be read as standalones!)

books with bisexual characters (even if they end up with the opposite sex THEY'RE STILL BI)

And Sci-fi. These are mostly sapphic, though. Open to recs

Every single Aardvark Book Club book pick since its inception. Updated monthly!

This is a collection of queer books written by bipoc authors that fall into the genre of fantasy and/or sci-fi (supernatural horror is also included)

(If a book is part of a series I only put the first book because otherwise it gets messy very quickly)

Recommendations are always welcome!!!

Again, just wanted to make this list because I haven't seen one like it! Leave suggestions if you have some :D

A list of books in the SciFi/Fantasy genre that heavily feature polyamory. Excludes harem romances, but includes other forms of romance.

Books on my TBR with LGBTQIA+ characters or themes.

Books where the main character is non-binary, genderfluid, or non-binary to trans.

Books of the polyamorous sort. Haven't read all of them so I could be wrong on some. Some of these are set in non-monogamous cultures even if the protagonists themselves are not engaging in romance or polyamory.

Big thanks to AthenatheStorier who often finds and recommends these books through instagram or tiktok videos!

Also if you're a lover of polyamorous stories of any kind/medium, let me know. I want to co-write a collaborative analysis of polyamorous stories and you could help!

Books that have queer vampires. Need I say more? (more so a list of books I have read and books to read this Halloween season)

A list of all the books featured as monthly picks for the Illumicrate Sub. ◽️ Not Including sequels or special editions outside of the monthly sub.◽️ I will include new books about a month after release to avoid spoilers.
