Recs if you like Mistakes Were Made...

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 - taking suggestions

Basically, a huge list of every book I ever heard features sapphic / lesbian 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.

Don't shoot the messenger.

For when your PB friends share the same name(s) as a book character! (See pinned comment for master list! Please feel free to chime in if you want to be added and/or if you want a different book assigned to you; I didn’t want to step on toes and add people I haven’t really talked to without their permission ❤️ also my brain is smooth and I forget book character names all the time lol)

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

sapphic books where they have a little fun with a strap on 😈

if you have any suggestions, please be sure not to hold back 😏

splish, splash, splosh, this water is about to slosh 💦 shower, bath, pool, hot tub, ocean scenes where water is used as an aid for heat, buoyancy, assistance, 𝒻𝑒𝒶𝓇 (im looking at you ms carlton 🦈), and just general ✨vibes✨

in these steamy titles, the water should make you clean but you end up dirtier than when you entered, and we’re here for it 🛁

save water, shower together ♻️

Just because you are queer doesn't mean you have your life together

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

romance books with particular interest in the MC saying iterations of “good girl” (kneeling is encouraged) - praise kink is explored in some titles.

these characters want to please their love interests by listening and following instructions. best paired with a good girl doing 𝒷𝒶𝒹 things.

this list is for those that were A+, teachers pet students and are now adults that want to be told they are doing a good job in the bedroom ⭐️ this list is NOT in reference to animals

Every year we pick 10 books that we think rise above the rest. These are the 70 we've picked since 2019.

Updated to include our Best of 2025 picks.

Much like my Sapphic Fantasy list, these are all the books that I've saved from TikTok before deleting it in the hopes of reading them one day. Feel free to comment any that you'd like added!

I hate the term “reverse age gap” because age shouldn’t be gendered. in this list, you will find books where SHE is the older one 😏

please, as always, send any and all suggestions my way 😇

a mix of romance and romance-adjacent books starring bisexual main characters.

Romance, Genre Fiction, or Literary Fiction novels for Childfree folks where its explicit that a main character is Childfree (and they aren't teenagers) and starting a family/having kids is not mentioned as a goal. For those of us who don't always want to read about a happy ending involving kiddos (even thought we love them!). Please feel free to add suggestions 😊

I went through all the books in the romance quest tab and here are all the ones where at least one of leads is in a relationship that is not "man and woman falling in love with each other." F/F, M/M, F/NBi, M/NBi, NBi/NBi, etc. Largely motivated by wanting to figure out which romance book quests I had a chance of getting the badges for. If I missed any, let me know. Quest specific info in the pinned comment.

🏳️‍🌈 bisexual books for bi babes - ain't no lie, baby, bi bi bi

a list of the books that are in 3 quests

Titles that feature alliteration and we love to see it. Recommendations requested to round out this remarkably ridiculous recital.

I know why you’re here 🫡

(Mostly romance books, some good some average)
