in progress - taking suggestions

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.

Don't shoot the messenger.

Romance books where at least one of the main characters is curvy/plus-sized! Because there truly is more to love <3

Books with fat and plus size main characters. (leave a comment with recommendations!)

All the YA Sapphic books that have been published (or at least most of them). The books in this list have at least one main character who is either a lesbian, bisexual or pansexual. I only put the first books in series.

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

Ah yes, this ol' issue that has plagued librarians and bookstore clerks for decades.

And sometimes you find the right book, but... can you even call that shade blue?

Sapphic books in German and English ✨

In October 2021, Texas State Representative Matt Krause initiated an inquiry targeting a list of approximately 850 books in Texas public schools, alleging they could cause "discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress" regarding race or sex. The list disproportionately targeted LGBTQ+ topics, race/racism, and sex education.

This is my project to read through this list for myself - utilizing my local library system for access to these titles. Follow the journey or join along!

A variety of books recommended by a librarian (appropriate for students aged 11-16 as well).

That's it. That's the list. It was 17 years before I ever read about a single Sapphic character in a book. Making up for it now by compiling every great Lesbian book, no matter the genre, that I've read or want to read for all to see. Please comment the best or first Sapphic book you ever read!

a list of fiction and nonfiction by or about bi+ people because I could have really used a list like this a few years ago

Main characters that are considered “plus-sized” but their success in their stories is not tied to weight loss.

Music and books both speak to something deeper in many of us. These books are about music, musicians, and how music moves us.
