Listening Is Reading
When the narrator(s) makes the book even better. For new listeners and audiobook elites, here is a range of different genres and narrators that excel at audio perfection.
a (ongoing) sapphic masterlist! (600+ books!)
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!
an ongoing sapphic masterlist of books (1600+)
in progress
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.
Open to suggestions for more titles.
Don't shoot the messenger.

if the cast of Dropout.tv were a book, theyโd beโฆ
Alternatively, these are books Iโd recommend to each Dropout cast member if given the opportunity to do so! Iโll be including a legend in the comments to clarify which book goes with each person. I know Iโm missing people, so if you have a good suggestion for a book recommendation that goes with someone I havenโt already mentioned, please share!
Itโs okay to judge a book by itโs cover!
Beautiful books for when your monthly reading roundup needs a little facelift ๐

If I Could Make A Quest: Sapphics Across Genres
Note: The Sapphic story in The Revanche Cycle tetralogy (Winter's Reach) continues in the Wisdom's Grave trilogy (Sworn To The Night), which also has the final HEA. However the two series can be read independently of each other.
Julia Whelan: Queen of Audiobooks
A list of audiobooks narrated by Julia Whelan who does great work and whose delivery scratches my brain in just the right way. For anyone who enjoys her narration and wants to know if they should go for the audiobook version!

lgbt+ ficion
These books have lgbt+ representation in them even if sometimes it's not the main focus or the leading couple. It's important to me to have a list that has variety and of not just stories about love but also those exploring gender identity and about those who don't experience love the same way like asexuals and aromatics. So far thare's a lot of sapphic books as well as quite a few books w/transgender mc's.
Queer Books To Cry To ๐ญ
Mostly sapphic and/or trans books that might make you cry while reading them. I will admit that it's not hard to make me cry, but these books all definitely succeeded.
