Recs if you like The Mermaid, the Witch, and the Sea ...

Basically, a huge list of books from all genres featuring sapphic characters, whether bisexual, lesbian, butch, femme, or anything in between.

Includes fiction and nonfiction. Books with spice, and books with very little romance alike. You may find epic lady knights, pirates, ancient vampires or just weird girl adventures, heartbreaking stories or cozy books of found family and queer joy. Memoirs, historical fiction, instruction manuals, maybe even a poem or two.

Welcoming suggestions<3

Pirates, sailors, mermaids, sirens, selkies, tentancle monsters - if they live on/in the ocean and are queer, they've earned a spot on this list! Across genres and age groups - includes erotica. 🔞🔞🔞

Recommendations welcome!

Fantasy books with queer rep

I'm quite experienced in the man-hating field. These books made me hate men more than I already did.

Duologies. Duologies! A list full of duologies. This has a collection of titles I'm interested in and some recommended to me. To save you the trouble, I made sure to put both books in a duology in this list. Enjoy! 💐

A collection of sapphic fantasy books that I have seen recommended across tiktok

Just a few Queer Mermaid, Siren, Sea Creatures books for your consideration! This is in no way an exhaustive list, just a few books I’ve read or are on my TBR.

the sea cares not for those who sail it, yet sail they do

No just pirate books! This list includes any tale that takes place (mostly) on a ship at sea.

here's a (currently short) list of books that have genderfluid characters as their MC or LI! I kept looking for lists like this, but mainly found ones for nonbinary characters in general, so I'm starting this from scratch with books I remember having genderfluid characters. All genres and audiences! [open to recommendations! all kinds of genderfluid identities allowed!]

Stories with romantic and/or sexual plots between women and non-binary characters (including dynamics with more than 2 characters), across genres and age groups. 🔞

Recommendations welcome!

All the YA Sapphic books that have been published (or at least most of them). The books in this list have at least one main character who is either a lesbian, bisexual or pansexual. I only put the first books in series.

Gays on boats. That's it, that's the list. (Open to recs! 🩵)

mermaids, fairies, and anything whimsy is such fun way to spend these warmer months

Books with sapphic characters at their center!

This list includes books where the character's queerness is clear, not merely suggested. The sapphic characters have to be central to the story.

The genres go beyond romance, expanding to historical fiction, fantasy, poetry, graphic novels, horror, non-fiction & more.

The selection is still growing 🌈

Seafaring stories and Little Mermaid-esque tales! (I'm excluding classics and books that just take place on the ocean but don't have any speculative elements, even my baby Moby Dick😭)

the best of the best from someone whose top genre is sapphic fantasy 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ (i’m a femme lesbian therefore im always right) suggestions welcome!!

Pirate stories, grand adventures and quests for treasure and more

Stories across genres and age groups that prominently feature trans & non-binary characters of color.

Recommendations welcome!
