Recs if you like These Burning Stars...

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.

All the lesbians books I can find. If you have any book you want me to add please comment ❤️

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 I’ve read!

i love women and nonbinary people and i think if they tore oppressive systems down things would be better for everyone :D (p.s. i would loveee reccs for this list!!! im always looking for more books like these!!!)

Is it healthy? Absolutely not. Am I going to look inward and unpack why I love it? Also no. Is it Gay? Definitely. Am I going to read books filled with obsession, rivalry, manipulation, betrayal, codependency, and dangerous sapphic longing? Obviously.

i amassed this list of sapphic sci-fi and fantasy from various recommendations from reddit and pagebounds and books i found myself! recommendations welcome x

Queer sci-fi 💫 (Not always in space, I think I've covered most sci-fi subgenres)

Requirements:

1. The Mc(s) is a tricksters or unreliable narrator who spends most of the book lying to, bluffing or otherwise misleading others or themselves.

2. They would continue lying even if they didn’t have to either they can’t help it or enjoy the game too much.

3. This causes situations that get unpredictable, chaotic or even completely ridiculous as the characters dodge or face consequences for their actions.

books that surround a character that is lesbian, bisexual, or wlw !! this is NOT at all a recommendation list this is just a collection of sapphic books !! if you have any suggestions please put it in the comments ! will be updated regularly

this is my favorite niche. all of my favorite books are this. if you like gays and sci fi you might find some new favorites too (constantly updating as I find more btw)

Books I saved from my TikTok feed that were labelled as Science Fiction!

Dystopian, Sci-fi, Space opera

Books on my TBR with LGBTQIA+ characters or themes.

A collection of well-written sapphic genre books where the "sapphicness" is more than just having a woman with a male love interest who happens to be bisexual. None of the books here have an f/m ending (unless there are multiple protagonists and at least one have an f/f relationship)

This will get updated in time since I don't want to recommend books I haven't read but I'll take requests if you want to give me any!

Note: The Sapphic story in The Revanche Cycle tetralogy (Winter's Reach) continues in the Wisdom's Grave trilogy (Sworn To The Night), which also has the final HEA. However the two series can be read independently of each other.

sff books that include sapphic couples

Gimme those space operas, science fiction babes, and interstellar bounty hunters

All books include main characters that are sapphic. This includes trans and non-binary lesbians

Natalie Naudus has narrated hundreds of audiobooks so bear with me as I try to get them all on this list!
