A favorite recent read is EXHIBIT by R. O. Kwon. Snappy, luminous prose weaves a story about two sapphic artists—a photographer and a ballet dancer—who meet at a party and disrupt each other's lives. I loved this exploration of kink & Christianity & how Jin chronicled her loss of faith through art.

The book cover of EXHIBIT by R. O. Kwon. The title is set in a white sans serif atop a minimalist close-up photograph of a pale body mid-turn. Black paint streaks down the figure's back.

THIRST by Marina Yuszczuk A sapphic vampire novel told in dual POVs where past and present converge in Buenos Aires. This is my favorite kind of literary horror, and I love how Yuszczuk uses vampiric thirst to open themes of grief, longing, and belonging. It’s gothic, blasphemous, and gorgeous.

The cover of THIRST. A torso of a marble statue lounges across the bottom half of a bright red cover. The title and author name are in hot pink text.

BRIGHTER THAN SCALE, SWIFTER THAN FLAME by Neon Yang (out May 6, 2025) I’ve seen you all asking for more sapphic lady knights, and this novella delivers! We follow Yeva, a dragon-slaying knight, as she confronts her indoctrination into empire and reconnects with her past and culture.

The cover of BRIGHTER THAN SCALE, SWIFTER THAN FLAME. A black, red, and white illustration of a knight in ornate black armor. Behind her, the king rests her head upon the knight’s shoulder. Their gazes are both very intense!

WOMAN, EATING by Claire Kohda Both tense and contemplative, this literary take on the vampire explores mixed-race identity and a fragile mother-daughter relationship. Perfect for fans of quiet vampire films like A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night or Only Lovers Left Alive.

HOUSE OF HUNGER by Alexis Henderson Sapphic vampire horror! A decadent gothic full of secrets and a beautiful scary lady with sharp teeth. The setting is so evocative and atmospheric that I still think about scenes from this book years after its release.

The cover of HOUSE OF HUNGER by Alexis Henderson. A painting of black woman wearing a red dress is set behind the title text. A gilded frame circles the border of the cover.

THE UNWORTHY by Agustina Bazterrica (out March 4th, 2025) This book made me emotional!! Bazterrica examines the human drive towards violence, exploitation, cruelty, and--ultimately--devastating hope and love. Viscerally moving in its portrayal of sapphic desire and defiance in a desolate world.

The cover of The Unworthy by Agustina Bazterrica, author of Tender Is the Flesh. It's a minimalist cover with a black background and red text. The title text and author name form a circle. A woman in a white tunic lifts her hands to the sky.

The cover of But Not Too Bold by Hache Pueyo. The title is written in bold black text on a bright pink background. A blue tarantula covers the first O in "too."

🫀 COVER REVEAL 🐺 I’m so incredibly in love with @northyme.bsky.social’s design and illustration for the cover of my forthcoming novella. A WOLF STEPS IN BLOOD is a lesbian shifter romance set in rural Alabama about an endangered red wolf and her exiled blood witch. Out April 16!

Yasmine is a red wolf girl stuck in rural Alabama. Her world is small: pick up shifts at the greasy late-night diner and endure her pack’s petty squabbles. She’s not good at being a wolf or being human, directionless in life and disconnected from her ancestors.

Blessed by a century-old enchantment, the local red wolves have escaped extinction by blending into the human world. But with the old witches’ blessing wearing thin, the wolves face an uncertain future.

An answer arrives in the form of an exiled blood witch whose magic is steeped in reckless grief. Kalta rides into town in her dead brother’s truck, prophecy following on her heels. Despite the danger Yasmine can smell swirling around the witch, a fated bond tangles their futures—and those of all the wolves.

After an accident threatens the wolves’ secret, Yasmine has no choice but to join Kalta on the road, carving a path through the South’s backroads and hoping the magic brewing between them is enough to overcome their pasts.

Hi, Bluesky! #bvm I'm a Black debut author with a sapphic romance novel coming out September 5th! You can add The Fall That Saved Us to your Goodreads shelves: www.goodreads.com/book/show/1937720… I'm still in awe of the illustration by @vetyyr.bsky.social

An illustrated book cover featuring two Black characters posed like Michelangelo's painting The Creation of Adam. At the top of the cover, a horned succubus with wings reaches down for a haloed woman with braids. The angelic woman is dressed in white and holds a dagger in her right hand.

Nephilim—humans with direct lines to the angels—are natural demon hunters. All nephilim, it seems, except Cassiel. The weakest among a family touched by archangels, she’s abandoned her angelic inheritance for a mundane life as a bookseller. But even in the noise of the city, she remains burdened by the strict tenets of her old life. And recently, something far more sinister haunts her.
Avitue is a succubus out for revenge—though she has little say in the matter. As part of the greater demons’ plan to ruin Cassiel’s family for slaying a duke of Hell, Avitue’s been sent to claim a particular nephilim soul, one she’s told will pose little challenge. It should be an easy seduction. Quick, fatal. But Avitue is surprised to find her own pain reflected in Cassiel, a nephilim deemed fallen by her own family’s standards.
By choosing trust, they reveal the lies that bind them, but as unwilling participants in an eternal war, trusting each other is the most dangerous thing they can do.

A text-based image with a red painted background and white letters. Content notes: While Cassiel's story is focused on healing, heavier themes of trauma and shame are explored in conversations and flashbacks to give context to her journey. Please consider the major content notes: cutting scars, self-harm ideation, discussion of an eating disorder, family emotional abuse, and a manipulative mother. This book contains sexual content and is only intended for adults.

A text graphic on top of an illustration of Avitue, a horned succubus wearing a red dress. The text is a blurb from Rien Gray, author of the Fatal Fidelity series. It reads: "The Fall That Saved Us weaves a heated sapphic romance with a cruel war of attrition between demons and the divine, only to remind us that the shared thread between it all is raw and vulnerable humanity. With an eye for the infinite complexities of healing from abuse, Tamara Jerée goes fangs out at religious trauma and bites deliciously deep."
