Recs if you like Transcendent Kingdom...
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.

Not the Same Five White Ladies
All credit for this list goes to ysaleftyouonread on instagram! This is her list of female authors she spotlighted for Womenโs History Month, that are โnot the same five white ladiesโ we always hear about! My personal goal is to read one book from each of these 31 women this year; I have been loving this journey and wanted to share with you all!
(Check out Ysaโs reels, she does a great job of describing the vibes without giving away the story!)
