Recs if you like You Won't Forget Me...

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 should all be reading queer, all year, but this list is full of upcoming queer books of all makes and models coming out in 2026. If you have a rec to add, just please keep in mind we’re looking for 2026 releases!

This pride month I want to highlight an amazing lesbian artist and illustrator Jenifer Prince! She’s one of my favorites and she creates amazing sapphic artwork; I have a few of her prints hanging up and they are gorgeous! In the last few years she has started illustrating book covers as well! Most of the covers are for sapphic stories, but I have included the ones that are not, as I want to highlight all of the covers she’s illustrated! Anyway, happy pride!!! 🧡🤍🩷

The title speaks for itself 🤝

Wanting to read something new in fantasy or romance that isn’t going to make you wait around in agony for a sequel? I’ve got you.

romance releases i’m looking forward to

in shoujo manga/anime, the “crimson rose and candy” archetype historically features romance between a confident, alluring “crimson rose” (often with high-contrast, dramatic or gothic features and aesthetics) and a more feminine, blithe “candy” (often with low-contrast, airy or pink features and aesthetics). while these stories in yuri originated as queer coming-of-age tragedy, i love identifying similar polarity frameworks in my favourite lesbian/sapphic novels alongside its various subversions!
