Recs if you like The Tiger's Daughter (Their Bright Ascendency, #1)...

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!

JK Rowling is a bigot who uses her platform to hurt transfolks and other marginalized groups (plus she literally just quoted Mein Kampf on the bird site). If you're still supporting her in 2025, don't bother talking to me.

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

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!

A collection of sapphic fantasy books that I have seen recommended across tiktok

A woman's place is in the revolution. Featuring magical/gifted women who disobey the powers that be and rage against the machine.

My assumption is most people know about most series so these are the ones I feel are VERY unknown AND I can confirm all are excellent and worth your time

f*ck misogyny, women write epic fantasy too

Happy International Women's Day! Have a huge pile of our favorite books starring queer women (fiction and non-fiction!). (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

Books with average 4 or more 🌟 ratings and at least 100 points of engagement (reviews & posts) in Pagebound from the Master Fantasy and Romantasy List by readandtellstories. For those times when I want to find highly rated fantasy/romantasy books that aren't necessarily indie, self-pub. Books in a series will include only the first book. I can neither confirm nor deny the right for these books to have these ratings. This list will be updated monthly based on outputs from prime list.

A vibes-based list themed after Legend of Zelda.

Inspo: the Gorons and Gerudo, where the dungeons usually involve a test of wills, skilled combat, and stealth. Their themes overlap in complimentary ways, so I bundled them together in one list to reduce redundancy. Themes: duty-bound, deceiving appearances, forging your own path, challenge a broken system.
