Lucy Dacus Recommendations 💛
Books recommended by musician Lucy Dacus, a solo artist and member of the band boygenius. Pulled from her goodreads list.
Fucked up relationships but make it sapphic
Romantic or not we love a good situationship or just a wtfship. Especially when it's sapphic.
I will keep adding to the list when I find new books fitting it
Being Human is Uncomfortable
These books are deeply human, and they aren't afraid to make you uncomfortable along the way. Whether the characters are unlikeable or the author seems to be rudely calling you out or the content is critiquing an aspect of the human experience (or all the above), these books are unflinching in the face of their consumers. Recommendations are welcome!
