sapphics in the apocalypse
adult and young adult books about queer women/girls surviving in apocalyptic dystopias (zombies, viruses, disasters, evil governments, etc.) because even the end of the world wouldn’t stop me from being super gay.

Fantastic list, super complimentary to my lot! You might well find some more sapphics over on my 2 queer apocalyptic/zombie lists.
Offhand, I can think of The Last Bookstore on Earth (climate apoc); the Cascadia series starting with World Departed (one of the lesbians is one of 4 pov's in this long zombie series); The Z Word - lesbians n zombies; Survival Kit (married lesbians in z apoc with big disability rep)
I'll have to check if my slightly broader queer lists have all of your books tomorrow, if that's OK with you, when I'm not meant to be in bed lol. The more queer apoc books getting out to the masses, the better!! 🎉
omg!! i’ll definitely check out your lists & thank you so much for the recs! so glad this list is finding more people 🫂
You're so welcome! Yeah, I just happened to see it on the new lists bit in Discover! A perfect coincidence since I don't usually remember to check that section out!
