an ongoing sapphic masterlist of books (1600+)
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.

Weird and Unhinged Women 2.0
All sorts of stories about all sorts of women and girls.
This is a genre-agnostic mega-list of weird girl* fiction expanding on an original list by @yarnandbooks, who is no longer curating lists on Pagebound. You can view the original list here: (link) /// As a nonbinary person, I take as broad a view as possible of the "girl" in "weird girl*", hence the asterisk.
Wide open for recommendations!






Sapphic F(r)iction
Women loving women! In literature!






Weird and Unhinged Women
All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.






itโs complicated: father-child relationships
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 โdaddy issuesโ โ 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.
