Recs if you like Lucky Red...

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.

Stories that tell the tale of sapphic life and love throughout time

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 🌈

Queer genre fiction set in a world different from our reality, whether set in a different time, a different world, or in a version of our world but with different rules. Perfect for the reader looking for a little escapism in their next queer read 📚✨

Usually with blunt force

When you want to read something a step above trash

I need to do research for a story I'm writing, so I'm collecting the relevant books I find here :) I will feature a range of fiction and non-fiction books about the real history and the fun imaginary worlds of queer western books. Suggestions always welcome!

p.s. there may be non-queer westerns or history of that era that make their way on here for research sake, but the goal is ultimately to bring more gay cowboys (gender neutral) into the world

Women loving women! In literature!

Lesbian and sapphic horse girls rise up ⬆️

I got a request for a list of sapphic fiction/romances with ambiguous covers that wouldn't be flagged by their country's customs and subsequently tossed. Thought I'd post it here, in case it might benefit someone else!

Another collection of books saved from TikTok. We don't gatekeep so I compiled them all here.

sapphic westerns! because nothing’s better than gunslinging cowgirls and good old fashioned lesbianism ♡

Gross girls, girlhood, and the like

My favorite sapphic book reccomendations
