Recs if you like The Admiral's Daughter: A Sapphic Slow-Burn Romance...

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!

collecting all 2026 releases featuring sapphic romance!!

This is my least favourite book naming convention. (Also, stop defining them by anyone they know might be more accurate; I just added a book that sounds great but the title fits this annoying trend, but I can't tell the gender of the botanist in the title from the description.)

We need more rival lesbians!!!!!!!! Sapphic recommendations of any genre welcome 🫶🏻 Can be tame like an office rivalry, conflict of interest, all-out enemies of war and anything inbetween!

this list features upcoming books that feature sapphic MCs or romance and are releasing in 2026!
