Recs if you like The Night Watch...

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.

Historical fiction books with queer characters

Stories that tell the tale of sapphic life and love throughout time

Books on my TBR with LGBTQIA+ characters or themes.

Sapphic books I don’t see people talking about as much. Mileage may vary!

Queer, radical and progressive books set and/or written in the 40s, 50s and 60s.

I thought it would be nice to have all of them in one long list.

Eclectic mix of historical sapphic fiction depicting gal pals who happen to share the same bed in a way that is absolutely platonic 🥸

girl kissers in the past

Curated mix of powerful HIV/AIDS-themed fiction from around the world, spanning decades, ages, and genres. Engaging, insightful, and emotionally resonant reads.
