Ah! Perfect timing! I've been wanting to pick up more lesbian fiction as my queer lit shelf needs more sapphics!
I love your channel because you always recommend books I haven't heard of elsewhere. Can't wait to give some of these a read! Also very grateful because I bought a copy of Mrs. Dalloway ages ago and then completely forgot about it LOL
I'm not sure if you've read it, but I'm reading She Who Became The Sun right now and I think you might like it. It's definitely more suited to a history-nerd-type because the plot is driven by politics, war, and the character's desire for power... but it's an incredibly poignant exploration of gender, and it's told in such a vivid and compelling way.
Just added a bunch of these to my TBR! I was wondering if in the future you could put a list of the books and their authors in the description? 😁
I've been meaning to read passing for awhile, definitely will now:) happy pride
Me when I want to read all of them but I remember I live in Poland and that most of them aren't translated, cost three times more than non-foreign books and can't be find in our libraries: 🥲
Try to find pdfs online
this is where piracy comes in hand 😈🏴☠️
i recommend searching "[book title] epub vk" 🙂🏳️🌈
fellow polak to ostatnie czego sie tutaj spodziewalam buzka tho trzymam kciuki za powodzenie w piraceniu
no wlasnie, to zawsze tak irytuje
thank you for this video! i actually recognized a good amount of the books here from you mentioning them before but appreciate the well worded summaries! i’m actually in the middle of Gods of Want and completely agree with you, gorgeous writing! will def check for a lot of these books at my library ☺️
your videos are so comforting :( i cant wait to read these books 🩷🩷🩷
Thank you so much for all these amazing recs!
much needed thank you sunny!!
thank you!! i was looking for what to read next, lesbians are getting fed
Perfect timing! The ones I've been reading haven't been hitting
I highly recommend Sunburn by Chloe Michelle Howarth. Haven’t finished it yet but the yearning is there!!
I’m sending you love❤ happy pride month love (:
loved this sunny!
every story in gods of want changed my life, truly an amazing collection
oh i'm so excited to eat all of these up, thanks for the recs!!
woooooooooo!!!! another sunny upload!!!
I loved Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead. My therapist did not love me reading it. It hit a little to close to home in the anxiety department for me.
Hey, I love your videos and it's just a suggestion, like can you put a picture of the books on the screen when you talk about them, that would be really helpful.
Love these videos!!
These sound so good.
Heck yes! I'm always up for more lesbian romance 😍🫶💕
Please look at “Beyond Any Experience” by Anne Terpstra! The main character is a middle-aged parent (gasp!) and it’s so sex positive. Writing is amazing: a very realistic portrayal of trauma, grief, and the wisdom of the multigenerational feminine.
I haven't seen this video yet so I do not know if this story comes in it, but I recommend Mountain ways by Ursula K le Guin. Iconic sci fi author, interesting saphic story, and craziest of all, written in 1996! Definitely ahead of its time.
I love these recs and I *love* Emily Austin, I can't wait for her next book to be out!
But I had never heard of This very nice box and I totally want to check it out now. Besides, I saw it's narrated by Rebecca Lowman, YES PLEASE!
Nice!
