Recs if you like Song of the Huntress...

every struggled to find actual lesbian/sapphic books when at the library or bookstore? so did I!

bc of said struggle, I started to curate a personal list of books that either has lesbian MCs and/or featured a primary sapphic romance.

i haven't read all of these, but I do try my diligence in confirming that they meet the above perimeters, since many books claim to be sapphic when they're not. this is an ever updating list, only fiction for now!

Books featuring mythology, legends and folklore from England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. (For the purpose of this list 'Ireland' encompasses the entirety of Ireland (Northern & Republic) as the historical mythos is largely the same since the split happened in the 1900's.)

Speculative fiction (fantasy, horror, sci-fi, etc.) about, or prominently featuring, ace characters. This includes demisexual characters and ace-spec characters as well! 🖤🤍💜 corrections & recommendations welcome <3

Note: used to be titled “For My Fellow Garlic Bread Lovers” but I worried it would cause confusion or not enough clarity on what the list was about (still keeping the bread emoji tho)

Fiction and non-fiction in which a main character, prominent supporting character, or narrator is canonically/confirmed to be on the asexual (ace) spectrum.

📓Canon: Confirmed by either the text or original creator. (Subtextual/implied and circumstantial characters can be found on my other ace list)

❕Disclaimer: I have not read all these books. Please feel free to correct me in the comments if I have made a mistake in my research. Or if you have any new titles to recommend.

a smattering of different mythology & legend retellings

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that I think matches at least one of these cover prompts: craft, food, motion, biomes/landscapes, animals, weather.

books that as far as I know are sapphic in some way, that have come out either last year, this year, or next year

german and english books with main characters on the Ace and Aro Spectrum✨

Sapphic books in German and English ✨

Or maybe rather romanticizing Celtic Mythology creatures? 👀🤭 Puca rips off people's heads to use them as balls, or kidnaps children and eats them would be a gentle lover and a perfect father for your children 😍 Dullahan the messenger of death would love you fiercely, even with his grumpy demeanor 🥰 (Getting blinded on one eye after looking at him? Never heard of that..)

Books that are inspired by different mythologys

The Romans have gone but we are here and we are queer.

This list reserves the right to interpret Medieval and Britain loosely. And also reality, some of these books contain fantasy elements but all are based in real places.

Recommendations welcome.

Books I came across on tiktok All genres

Does what it says on the tin. Historical fiction with lesbians and sometimes it's also fantasy.
