Re: Lesbian Book Recs

[(Anonymous)]

I mean, what books I rec is really gonna depend on what you’re looking for.

Do you want light contemporary romance? Then I recommend anything by Melissa Brayden or Rachel Spangler.

Do you want a complex fantasy where the protagonist’s sexuality plays a background role in a drama about politics or war? Then I recommend Sing the Four Quarters or Fire Logic.

Do you want urban fantasy about a paranormal private investigator? Then I recommend the Kate Kane books.

Do you want a light and frothy YA fantasy? Then I recommend Of Fire and Stars.

Do you want fanficcy fantasy where everything works out and nothing ever hurts too much for the main characters? Then the Mangoverse is fun, even if it’s not actually that well written.

Do you want fantasy with subplots about politics and academia and loyalty kink like whoa? Then yeah, I recommend continuing with the Alpennia series.

it doesn't even need to be part of the main plot or anything

How is Sing the Four Quarters f/f? Seems to be a very standard m/f from the blurb.

The protagonist's a bi woman in a long-standing open relationship with another woman, and maintains that relationship at the end of the book, though she is separately going to have a relationship with the dude who impregnated her. I would caveat reccing it for f/f myself - her girlfriend stays behind during their adventures, and it's really not the focus of the story, but her girlfriend is definitely there for her.

I would consider "her main relationship in the course of the book is with a man" to be a MAJOR caveat that should be mentioned in that rec!

Reccer: I think “her main relationship is with a man” is kind of misleading? They’re not romantic. They’re allies with a common goal. The main character only has a romantic relationship with her long-term female partner.

DA mentioned that they had a relationship at the ending which...is possible? I’m trying to remember but it’s been a little while since I read it.

Am I misreading the blurb I found? Because it sounds like the book is about the pregnant protagonist traveling around with the father of her child.

AYRT

As DA said above, it’s a thing where the protagonist is in a long-term open f/f relationship.

I...actually forgot that the summary didn’t give this info, because this is how it was always recced to me. Whoops!
