Being a hopeless romantic + second puberty feels has given me a major tgirl boner for sapphic stories, and I figured I might as well start sharing the results of my discoveries.

  1. I'm saying 'sapphic' here instead of 'lesbian' to be inclusive of everyone who feels like they fit. Most of the stuff I'm into is gonna fall into "feminine people loving feminine people".

  2. With the exceptions of The Masquerade and The Locked Tomb (because they're really on an entirely different level), unless otherwise noted everything here eventually gives the girls a happy ending. I'm way too tired of the "kill/break up your lesbians for tragedy points" trope to tolerate it 95% of the time.

  3. This is just my personal list of stuff I've consumed and enjoyed, it's not a universal clearinghouse. I'll update it as I binge like a love-maddened teenager responsibly balance my sapphic dopamine drips with the rest of my life. Feel free to recommend stuff in the comments, and link this list to places where it'd be of interest!

Books

  • The Masquerade Series by Seth Dickinson. It's an anti-colonialist & merchantilist deconstruction of European Enlightenment-era political treatises with tragic lesbians and experimental brain surgery.
  • The Locked Tomb by Tamsyn Muir. Mentally unstable space necromancers deal with daddy issues, trauma, and sapphic yearning while fighting the souls of all the planets they've killed.
  • The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon. I've only read the first book in this series so far, but it's a great epic fantasy with queer representation that includes an excellent enemies-to-lovers slow burn.
  • The Midnight Girls by Alicia Jasinska. Witches apprentices fight to claim the heart of a pure prince to empower their masters, but find more in each other than they bargained for in this book very well based in traditional Slavic dark mythology.
  • Gearbreakers by Zoe Hana Mikuta. So we're gonna Mad Max Pacific Rim and drop it into The Hunger Games and see just how much trauma we can hit these poor women with while we see if they'll be able to save the world AND get the girl.
  • The Coldest Touch by Isabel Sterling. When a vampire falls in love with an awakening necromancer who can't touch anyone without experiencing traumatic visions of their death, you know you're going to get some deep sapphic yearning.
  • Killing Eve by Luke Jennings. MI6 agent Eve Polastri is trying to capture international super-assassin Villanelle, but can she do that when the killer has captured her heart? I debated putting this in Books or Video, and confession: I watched it, haven't read it. But, I'm told the books have an ending more in line with the theme of this list, which the TV show deviates from for tragedrama points.
  • Compass Rose & Sea Wolf Covered in my linked review.

Animation

  • "She-Ra and the Princesses of Power" on Netflix. It has a lot of quirky cheese in it at first owing to its source material, but this reboot contains a surprising amount of darkness and worldbuilding, queer representation, and an enemies-to-lovers arc for the ages. It was honestly a big part of what cracked my egg.
  • "Gundam: The Witch from Mercury" Awkward female himbo Suletta Mercury arrives at a school for learning to pilot mecha, immediately wins a duel with her probably-illegal mobile suit, and learns that doing so has left her betrothed to Miorine Rembran, heiress of the largest corporation in the governing military-industrial complex. Watching their relationship and vulnerability with each other grow is amazing, even if the second half of the show devotes a lot more time to the overall story than it does to their relationship.
  • "The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady" (MagiRevo for short) When Euphyllia, the kingdom's most promising young magician, is scorned by the Prince, she's rescued from her shame by Princess Anis, the precocious wild child artificer whose research is considered heretical. Can they navigate these feelings for each other while defeating the Prince's schemes and the staunch traditions of the noble patriarchs?
  • "RWBY". I'm throwing this on here, despite only having one confirmed sapphic relationship with the main characters, because watching that relationship cook across 9 seasons is a treat, and because there's enormous shipping potential in a lot of the other female characters. For an action-adventure story about young women fighting monsters, this show is very feminist in its focus on well-developed female characters and their relationships with each other. Beware that huge swaths of the fandom are garbage fires, and try to stick to the Bumbleby and WhiteRose fanfic spaces.

Other Video

  • "The Wilds" It sets up like 'Lord of the Flies' but with young women, but there's something nefarious afoot. In addition to an enemies-to-lovers story, this one also helped crack my egg with a lot of gender feels.
  • "Motherland: Fort Salem" In an alternate timeline where witches played an instrumental role in the American colonial revolution, military service is compulsory for young women who can sing The Work into being. When Raelle, Abigail, and Tally are formed into a coven, they find themselves caught in a world-changing plot of revolutionary terrorists, patriarchal fascists, ancient mysteries... and of course, romance.

Comics/Manga

  • Mage & Demon Queen Most adventurers are out to kill the demon queen Velverosa. Malori wants to bed her. The story is heartfelt and fun, and the NSFW patreon extras are spicy.
    -Not So Shoujo Love Story Loner rebel girl Rei gets her quest for the perfect high school romance thrown for a loop when the hottest, most popular girl in school, Hannah, confesses to having a major crush on her. Very cute & endearing feels!
    -Lily Love A short, cute manga about two young women falling in love. It has a simple but charming relationship arc, good art, and some spicy scenes.
    -Night Owls and Summer Skies A really sweet, and beautifully illustrated, story of how two young lesbians find love at a summer camp, and help bring healing and growth to the people around them.
