Hi! I’m trying to get out of a really long reading slump. I do read non-sapphic books but I just want to find more sapphic-specific ones since straight books in every genre would be easier to find. I’ve already read a few classics (all of Sarah Water’s works, Carmilla, The Price of Salt etc.) I tried getting recommendations from tiktok since I wanted more current recommendations but out of the ones I’ve read I was disappointed by the writing style (Evelyn Hugo even if I did like the plot). I’ve also started some popular baihe novels a long time ago that I never finished so it would also be nice to get international book recs.
My only other requirements are maybe leaning more towards contemporary/mystery/psychological/historical in terms of genre and less fantasy but I’m open to any recommendations at this point just no YA at all. If my standards are too high I’ll also take any recommendations for any book with a female protagonist and without romance as the main plot. Thank you so much
