Recs if you like The Fiancée Farce...

Romance books featuring love stories between two women that will make you swoon!

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!

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.

All the lesbians books I can find. If you have any book you want me to add please comment ❤️

Much like my Sapphic Fantasy list, these are all the books that I've saved from TikTok before deleting it in the hopes of reading them one day. Feel free to comment any that you'd like added!

the coquette femme aesthetic is of the utmost importance

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

Any form of sapphic or w|w romance <3

put!! them!! both!! on!! the!! cover!! we want chemistry, detailing and design!! WUH! LUH! WUH! shakes the publisher some of these are series so check out the rest!

Titles that feature alliteration and we love to see it. Recommendations requested to round out this remarkably ridiculous recital.

Romance books with (at least) 2 bisexual main characters.

From sweet & swoony to undeniable heat, these books will have you kicking your feet and blushing at all the right moments. Banter, longing, tension, and MMCs who mean it — prepare for maximum squealing.

For those who are looking for a love story with some spice ;)

your fave iconic lesbian books were written by bi+ authors!!!

mostly to oppose the erasure of essential bisexual participation in lesbian literature and misinformation that bi+ women broadly prefer mlm to wlw. most of these authors have several sapphic books so make sure to check out the rest! many are also nonbinary, trans and/or on the aro/ace spectrums so please be mindful of their pronouns, labels (or lack thereof) and gender identities. suggestions welcomed!

(mostly sapphic) good queer books on my personal wishlist that have an added benefit of looking beautiful on the shelf!

Spicy romance books with cute, illustrated covers that don't look nearly as spicy as they are 🌸

This list is based on the covers featured here, so it may be a little biased. Recommendations are welcome!💌

NB: Includes different spice levels and some LGBTQ+ romances❤️‍🔥

sapphic reads i've read or on my tbr! mostly fantasy/scifi and contemp, some hisrom and nonfic 📚

Women pretending to be in love, then fall in love🙈

curated list of my fave fiction that have authentic and in-depth portrayals of the bi+ experience—often through intersections with gender expansiveness and the aromantic/asexual spectrums—as attraction that transcends gender, and/or the unique simultaneous embodiment of homosexuality and heterosexuality.

in shoujo manga/anime, the “crimson rose and candy” archetype historically features romance between a confident, alluring “crimson rose” (often with high-contrast, dramatic or gothic features and aesthetics) and a more feminine, blithe “candy” (often with low-contrast, airy or pink features and aesthetics). while these stories in yuri originated as queer coming-of-age tragedy, i love identifying similar polarity frameworks in my favourite lesbian/sapphic novels alongside its various subversions!
