an ongoing sapphic and lesbian masterlist (2300+)
in progress - taking suggestions
Basically, a huge list of every book I ever heard features sapphic / lesbian 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.
Don't shoot the messenger.






Queer and Disabled
Intersectionality, baby! Disability includes many conditions, including - but not limited to - physical disabilities, chronic illnesses, psychiatric disabilities, sensory disabilities, and neurodivergence.






Butches In Literature
Another resource for those looking for butches in books.
Disclaimer: I do not necessarily recommend all of these books. Please check out my page for reviews of the ones Iβve read!






a butch4butch feast
butch4butch representation is difficult to find, and iβm constantly on the lookout for more, so iβm compiling the listβas slow growing as it may be. the goal in making this list is to highlight books where the main characters are confident in their masculinity and the main romance is butch4butch/masc4masc.
(i am aware this list is lacking in bipoc books as of now, and i am hoping to find many more. if you have any recs, i am gladly welcoming them.)






Sapphic Novellas
Novellas (less than 200 pages) featuring sapphic characters and/or romances!






A main character walks into a bar...
Bartenders, sommeliers, and distillers in love. Recommendations enthusiastically accepted, especially for queer romance!






Les4les Romances
Books with a Lesbian Mc and Love Interest






Sapphic Books
let the girls kiss as queerly as possible --
not all of these are romance and most are from my tbr so they could not be sapphic and just, queer, but most of them should be






These Are Adults
These are romance books where both characters have fully formed frontal lobes, where they are competent in their endeavors and where they can have a god damn conversation when needed. I don't need this in every romance, but man, it hits the spot sometimes.






Absolutely KICKING MY FEET and Swooning!!
Romance books I would recommend to anyone! Iβm sure thereβs lots of these lists out there, but as someone who reads about 100 romances a year, I thought Iβd point out ones I love!
