Recs if you like Backhanded Compliments...

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!

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 love hockey romances as much as the next person but sometimes you want another sport to take center stage. So here is a collection of sports romance books where one (or all of them) is playing a sport that isn't hockey.

Feel free to leave any recomendations for the list.

(Contains both YA and Adult romance)

put!! them!! both!! on!! the!! cover!! we want chemistry, detailing and design!! WUH! LUH! WUH! shakes the publisher some of these are series so check out the rest!

Yes, queer and trans folks play sports. These are those books.

Whether it's about the romance or the sport or both, these books at the very least contain characters who practice and/or care about sports, are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and possibly do the kissy

fun/casual lgbt books. predominantly contemporary romance, trying to avoid lit fic. more for when i am looking for a palette cleanse.

Sapphic characters and sports, what could be better?

tennis romance novels

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

i have recently discovered that I LOVE sports romance... when it's gay. so here is a list of some gay lil romances with a sports background 🩷 if you have a suggestion or a recommendation, let me know in the comments and I'll add it ✨

These books have a lot of balls and stuff :)

My anticipated 2025 romance releases!

My goal this year as a tennis fan is to read queer romance books, which I surprisingly have never read any of before. So this list contains books I either want to read or am interested in reading.
