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!

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!

❌ online discourse, ✔️ holistic knowledge fiction & non-fiction that will deepen your understanding of sapphism, its language/label evolution, and its intersections with bipoc, gender diversity and bisexuality. (please note “lesbian” terminology was originally an expansive umbrella openly inclusive of fluid sapphics when many books were published, and not all identify as specifically/exclusively wlw!)

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!

books that as far as I know are sapphic in some way, that have come out either last year, this year, or next year

Sapphic books I don’t see people talking about as much. Mileage may vary!

sapphic romance

Characters in novels traveling our world, either via road trip, flights, tours, what have you, that will make you want to travel.

my all-time favourite sapphic fiction with sizzling chemistry, guaranteed to make you feel at least 40% gayer after reading!

Books where a huge chunk of the action is just the characters walking from Point A to Point B. With maybe some kissing or a sword fight along the way.

whispers i protect the family

I'll never get to all of them, but that doesn't mean I'm not HYPED

Exciting books releasing in September of 2025!
