βWeird Girlβ Books to Read to Feel Well Adjusted
Itβs always nice to feel like a normal person by reading about those more unhinged than you π These are all women focused books. Some Iβve read and some Iβm going to read. Apologies in advance if it gets long. Recommendations are absolutely welcome!! So please feel free.
I know a couple are written by men which might be taboo for some but Iβve included because I thought they were appropriate or the author has a track record of writing women well.
actually good queer lit fic
weird gay shit, lots of genre and gender bending, probably no fantasy
Intense Female Friendships
These novels center around intense friendships between women. Are they queer? Maybe, maybe not. Either way these friendships are all consuming.
Sapphic Coming of Age
Need more books like this :3

Campus Novels
Books that take place in and around university or college campuses (and I'm including some boarding schools). Perfect for back to school season in the fall.
elite american university (derogatory) experience
books that accurately capture what if feels like to go to one of these schools - weirdos with niche interests, the insanely wealthy, students being told they are brilliant and powerful despite being literal teenagers
