Chloe Atkins, Girls’ Night Out: Gina and Jenna, 1998

[wlw]

why are wlw books so angsty and deep all the time like where is my casual wlw romcom or my fantasy lesbians, space bis and trans princesses like not every wlw has some lost love in some town in the middle of nowhere

[shiraglassman]

I live for posts like this, because there are soooo many good f/f books out there that don’t get the attention they deserve because of the way wlw are marginalized. So!

Here are some recs for casual/feel-good f/f representation! All links are to my reviews.

Good Enough to Eat - super cute lesbian vampire rom-com

Promises, Promises - parody of LotR/D&D starring three lesbians on a quest for magical stuff

Everything Leads to You - Hollywood f/f YA about a young set designer who falls for a girl she meets under mysterious circumstances

The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet - ensemble-cast “crew of a spaceship” story. Mostly just random adventures, includes a f/f couple who survive the book.

Roller Girl - contemporary f/f romance about trans woman who joins a roller derby team

Not fluffy, but the angst is SFF-stress rather than “living under homophobia/biphobia” stress:

Ascension - queer disabled ladies fighting Big Pharma in space–you wanted space bi’s, come get your space bi’s (actually, if you want more space bi’s also check out the anthology Fierce Family.)

Chameleon Moon - review is of an earlier edition and I hear the new one has even more great representation. Trans woman superhero with two female partners living in a dystopian city that’s on lockdown from the government after everyone develops mutant powers in response to a wonderdrug.

Not Your Sidekick - in the future, what happens when your parents are superheroes but you never developed powers? You intern for the baddie, of course! MC is bi and ends up in a f/f relationship, and the sequel will star her trans bestie.

Hope this helps. Feel free to browse my “lesbian books” tag for more recs (there are bi/pan girls in some of those recs, too.)

a concept: we’re laying in bed, spooning. your arms slung over me, holding me tightly. you place a soft kiss on the back of my neck as I breathe slowly while I sleep.

[rarebritney]

we are both tired, we kiss in the grocery store, we stand in line and I put my head on your shoulder, I fall asleep a little bit. we kiss in front of the security cameras; at your apartment it is getting dark and you have something to do, you go away for a little while, I don’t mind. you set up your nice speakers in the living room so I can listen to stereolab while I cook dinner for us. I open a colt 45 and an iced coffee, I choose the coffee so I am lucid when you get back. i take off my pants, boil water, eat chocolate, brush my hair, wait for you

[jamausis]

want to.. kiss…. very sleepy
