Recs if you like Cosmic Love at the Multiverse Hair Salon...

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!

We love books with a verbose title, and this list celebrates them! Suggestions welcome 🤗

Alternatively, these are books I’d recommend to each Dropout cast member if given the opportunity to do so! I’ll be including a legend in the comments to clarify which book goes with each person. I know I’m missing people, so if you have a good suggestion for a book recommendation that goes with someone I haven’t already mentioned, please share!

the coquette femme aesthetic is of the utmost importance

Unhinged and chaotic queer stories that are beyond entertaining (and in some ways, very disturbing as the best are haha!)

Queer genre fiction set in a world different from our reality, whether set in a different time, a different world, or in a version of our world but with different rules. Perfect for the reader looking for a little escapism in their next queer read 📚✨

Books I saved from my TikTok feed that were labelled as Science Fiction!

it's a cozy fantasy kind of winter (bonus points if its sapphic)

Any sapphic book that I feel falls in the category of lit fic

Books about people (particularly women) with a unique job situation. The definition of "unique job situation" is basically vibes. It could be fantastical or surreal, or just a normal job in an unusual situation. Or maybe a job so mundane and specific that the focus on it feels weird. Also books about real people with unique and interesting jobs. (Also I have not read all of these so I'm just going off descriptions for some of them.)

Books on my TBR with LGBTQIA+ characters or themes.

Because there’s so many of these, it needed a list of it’s own ❤️🧡💖

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

All books include main characters that are sapphic. This includes trans and non-binary lesbians

A list of Sapphic books released in 2025 that fall somewhere in the SFF genres

sapphic romance

I got a request for a list of sapphic fiction/romances with ambiguous covers that wouldn't be flagged by their country's customs and subsequently tossed. Thought I'd post it here, in case it might benefit someone else!

the queer romance and fantasy books that are on my tbr (and that i love)

Me every time I read a book: “Hey there’s a Florence song for this”
