Appreciation for the tall ladies đ«Ą
As a tall-ish girl myself, every time I come across an FMC who is described as tiny, I yearn a bit more for some tall FMC representation â we can be love interests too! đ„čđ So I made this list of (mostly romance and fantasy) books with a tall FMC. Whether she is taller than her partner, or they are somehow EVEN TALLER than her, all is welcome here đ«¶
I havenât read every single book on this list, so please correct me if I am wrong somewhere. More book recs super appreciated!!! đ€

Make Room For Love is a sapphic romance with a tall butch lesbian as one of the protagonists! She is described as even taller than the other protag (who is a trans woman, for context).
Ohh amazing! I just added it! đ Thank you đââïžđââïžđââïž
Hi!! If you are still open to recommendations, I just finished Missed Connections! It's not a romantasy (at least not in my mind), but it's a sci-fi fantasy with romance subplots and the FMC is 6'2"! It just came out yesterday and I really enjoyed it!!
Ohhh thank you; I love more recs! And that sounds amazing; Iâm adding it immediately! đđ«¶
5'10". I LOVE this. Im so tired of hearing about petite women đ
Thank you! đ„°âșïž And sameeee, especially when it feels like almost every second sentence has to highlight how tiny she is, despite it not even being necessary for the plot đ đ I hope youâll find some recs youâll enjoy here! đ«¶đ«¶đ«¶
Whenever its like âShe was a mere waif, hardly even lighter than a featherâŠ. â I cannot relate. Even as a kid that was not me. I looove this list! So good!!
Yesss I know right! I was also a tall kid and could never relate. And now Iâm a tall and midsize woman and Iâm like lol that description is SO not me đ
And thank youuu that compliment means so much to me! đ„°đ«¶đđ
Sameee! I want to see more tall women and short men combos! I am also over the "he towers over me" theme.
THANK YOU!!! much love, a 6ft, big, strong lady
Youâre very welcome! đ„°đââïž
Got a juicy one for ya: Blessed by the Cupid Distribution System by Robin Jo Margaret
Ohhh amazing! Thank you!!! đ„°đ
If recommendations are still open, I'd like to recommend Wolf of the Sands by Amy Kuivalainen. FMC is over 6ft tall.
Ohhh thank you! I just added it đââïžđ«¶
In Meet Me in Los Feliz by Kelly Reynolds, the heroine is taller than the hero! I can't remember how tall everyone is, so she might not be legitimately tall, just taller than he is. Either way it's a cute (and smutty) holiday read!
Thank you for the rec! I just added it! đââïžđ„°
