Recs if you like Ten Steps to Nanette...

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.

memoirs, anthologies, graphic novels etc. - anything goes as long as it's nonfiction about the trans & queer experience

audiobooks where the narrator is the author! any book goes, no matter the genre. there may be multiple versions of the audiobook, but at least one version has the author as narrator. please suggest more in the comments!

Different kinds of non-fiction books about gender, feminism, and related topics. People like black women or neurodivergent women are twice or more marginalised, and often it's not clear whether treatment was due to (for example) skin colour or perceived gender, so I'll add some books about other kinds of marginalisation as well. I haven't read all books (yet); if one is problematic, please tell me so in a comment!

I believe you. You are not alone.

Some fabulous works of non fiction from Australia

May 16th is National Biographer's Day, commemorating the work of people who write about... people! We've picked out a whole pile of our favorite biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs by and about queer folks to celebrate the occasion. (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.)

We've always been here and we will always be here

Not only is April 1st a Fool's Day, it's also Reading is Funny day, so we put together a list of our favorite queer stories that made us laugh! (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.)

Everyone has a story, and some people get to tell them in a memoir.
