Recs if you like Nymph...

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.

We should all be reading queer, all year, but this list is full of upcoming queer books of all makes and models coming out in 2026. If you have a rec to add, just please keep in mind we’re looking for 2026 releases!

collecting all 2026 releases featuring sapphic romance!!

books that feel:

claustrophobic like the summer heat like stifling longing flushed cheeks like unbidden realisations melancholically sweet like painful emptiness existential like utter confusion

I haven’t read all book on this list (yet). Feedback regarding books/authors is welcome🫶🏻 PLS CHECK TW

pink, sophisticated & sometimes fatale <3 curating the personality of my aspirations (added some essential nonfic & poetry!)

Here's every book so far from BOTM's monthly shortlist since February 2015 for anyone who wants to read them all like I do!

Name-calling and insults you might hear on the playground and beyond...

Anything can be an insult if you believe it! My kid brother used to get in trouble for calling us "you...you BEAN" with all the spite his little preschool self could manage 🥹

books with five letter titles to tuck away for our favourite word guessing game

lit fic and horror, mainly, and mostly books by women, nonbinary & trans writers, basically mostly non-cis-men

All the 2026 BOTM monthly, add on, and Allurial titles

All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.

Women loving women! In literature!

"Weird girl literature" featuring sapphic characters

💜 yarnandbooks

Books that got even better when they started smoking (best served with your own buzz)!

under construction

Fiction & nonfiction books that explore the complexities and traumas of father-child relationships or in which such relationships play a central role. Not all books on this list include “daddy issues” — these books can be about the different perspectives and nuances of the father-child relationship, whether positive or negative. Some books center the child, some the father, some both.

Suggestions are welcome.
