Since the first edition went down so well, I thought I’d make a part two.
If you’re new here – hi, I’m Katherine Blakeman, and it upsets me to see the same few Sapphic books being recommended time and time again to the detriment of other, less-well-known books and authors. A couple of weeks ago, I compiled a list of fifty, all of which had under fifty reviews or ratings on Goodreads. It took the Sapphic world by storm – or at least that’s what it felt like for me, since I am a less-well-known author myself – and so I decided to do a second round.
This time, the community got involved. Several of these books were recommended by fellow Sapphic fiction readers. The rest, I found by myself. You probably know the drill by now – behold this list, alphabetically sorted by author name. Go out there, and show these books some love! Meanwhile, I’ll continue to peddle my own little Sapphic books (The Summer We’ve Had and Love You However) in the hope that you guys go and show them some love, too…
Happy reading!
NB: I am not financially or professionally affiliated with any of these authors; their inclusion is based on my own research, and recommendations from other authors/readers.
