Thoughts on dykette and perfume and pain

I put those two books together because they have a very similar vibe: messy, not so P.C chronically online white lesbian who is purposely insufferable. I love LOVE dykette but I just started reading perfume and pain and just not feeling that same love. I’d like to hear you guys’ thoughts on these books tho for anyone that has read one or both! Also nice if you can give recs to similar books (bonus if it’s a non white lesbian but I know that’s stretching it lol)

Books like The substance

Hi ladies! I have a specific request, i guess 😅 Do you know of any book that is similar to film the substance (beaty standards/beaty industry/body horror mb and etc.), but with lesbian protagonist? And not natural beauty

Sci-fi or Cyberpunk (with lesbians)?

These are my favorite genres, though it seems they are not particularly popular among lesbians - which makes sense. Lesbian representation in these genres is even more difficult to find, and quite depressingly so.

Lesbians don't need to be the main focus of the book, or even a major part of it. A gay romantic subplot would be more than excellent, and even preferred to some extent. Hell, even if there are no lesbians, drop a book you like! Always love a good book, even if there are no lesbians </3

"touch her and you die" but lesbian

So basically what the title says. I love a protective lesbian and I'm in the mood of reading books endowed with this trope.

I’m looking for something but idk what it is(label)

I’m a little shy typing this idk. So I first got a hint of this when I read “a lady’s guide to celestial mechanics”. It was one of the spice scenes and she had to tell her partner what to do to her but then it was the partner that was in control still. Idk what this dynamic is. Is it a kink?

I’m not a fan of bdsm, but this doesn’t really seem like bdsm so idk what it is. And she (partner strangely in power despite being told what to do to partner) wasn’t mean or anything. I mean she was a little rough (very slightly) but not mean.

Anyways, if someone knows the name of this dynamo or has recs similar to what happened there, please tell me.🙈

Lesbian religious guilt/repression book recs

Hey, not sure if this is too niche of a genre but are there any wlw books with a Christian or Muslim theme talking about falling in love in a strict religious environment?

So far I’ve only read Sunburn by Chloe Michelle Howarth.

Mermaids, Vampires, and other things that go bump in the night

Step right up folks, with Halloween right around the corner I figured there was no harm in a little self promotion. I bring thee three tales of women falling for monstrous women. All which can be read totally for free though the third one is still being released.

The Orca’s Serenade

Eva Diaz, a marine biology student, has always loved the sea and the orcas that call it home. This makes her summer job a dream come true for the struggling university student. When an opportunity arises to check out her uncle's current project, a very rare specimen of cetacean, in the top-secret research facility of Ocean Land, she can't resist learning more. Except this specimen is a lot less whale and a lot more creature of myth. Mermaids shouldn't be real yet now it's her job to befriend one. Gripped by uncertainty she must choose whether to be a warden or to heed the call of the orca’s serenade.

The Cold’s Embrace

Sophie Clay, a young wildlife biologist, has been accepted into her dream job tracking polar bears in Alaska. However, it's a long way from home and means saying goodbye to her boyfriend for the next few months. When a spontaneous backpacking goodbye trip takes a turn, she must struggle to survive in the cold Alaskan wilderness. Getting home would be challenging enough with the freak weather and deadly temperatures but worse there's something else out there with her. It’s howling echoing on the wind.

A Corpse’s Guide to Life

Toronto is a big city, especially for someone from a small town. With her first year at university almost complete, Sofia Ortíz is trying to figure out what the future holds. But when her roommate drags her on a night out for her 21st birthday, the last thing she ever saw happening was a gruesome and violent death. The only problem, beyond brutally dying, is that she didn't stay dead. Now, highly sensitive to the sun, partially blind and with a hunger for blood, Sofia must learn to navigate her new existence. But how can one truly learn to live when they’ve lost life itself?

I hope these tickle someone’s fancy, I know I’m always a sucker for sapphic monster romances. If anyone does read any of these do let me know what you thought. I positively adore feedback.

Looking for a book

Hello! I’m looking for a book that I read ages ago and can’t seem to find anywhere.

It was about a boss and her assistant. The boss used to always keep her door open except for just before she was due to go to a big meeting, then she would close it (to relieve stress). The assistant went to hand her something but the door was slightly ajar and she saw her boss masturbating. She then shut the door and went back to her desk but couldn’t stop thinking about it. The next time the boss shuts her door the assistant walks in and sees that she’s struggling to orgasm so she helps her - they don’t talk at all. This then happens a few more times and each time they get closer e.g they speak and the assistant touches herself at the same time. Then towards the end of the story the boss has to go away on a business trip (Vancouver I think) and she invites the assistant away and the assistant thinks it’s just because she needs to relieve stress before her meeting but the boss is actually starting to fall for her.

I’ve literally wrote down everything I can remember in hopes someone else has read it. I’ve searched ever for this book but just can’t remember what it’s called.

Thank you!!

This Is How You Lose the Time War

I've seen the book recommended on here so many times, so I gave it a shot. I have to ask. Am I missing something? It felt super pretentious and meandering. Can someone who liked this book explain it to me? I have to be missing something.

I know not every book has to be for everyone, but with how many times it gets recommended I'm thinking maybe I just am not understanding it.

Detective x Serial killer

Hey guys, so I'm writing a Detective x Serial killer/ criminal trope.

I've decided to make it after seeing so many requests for it on different subs, and also based on a tv show I been watching lately.

So, without being said check it out guys! And if you do I hope you enjoy it, it's only one chapter but more will be posted tomorrow.

(Also, I will try to make my Serial killer mc likable as possible)

Lesbian Werewolves

It's approaching Halloween, and I'm noticing how many novels are written about lesbian vampires but not about lesbian werewolves. I'm looking for stories that centre on lesbian werewolves. In these, the werewolf has to find her mate or get arranged to her mate. She is very possessive, but loving, and maybe the werewolf is the leader of her pact.

like that's what I'm looking for.

if you have any recommendations that would be greatly appreciated.

Love Factors by Quinn Ivins needs to become a movie. I’m dead serious.

I read this book when I just started reading women liking women novels. I read parts of it again today, I just love it so much.

This book needs to become a movie. I understand there is so much needs to be tweaked in terms of the portrayal of academia. But hell, this needs to be adapted into a movie. Find a good team to produce it this would be amazing..

Would I ever live to see it? I hope I’m not the only one thinking this.

Cate Blanchett would be perfect for Carmen. As for Molly, someone sunny and sweet and youthful would do. Please can some Hollywood producer just randomly stumble upon this review?
