I really love the atmospheric writing in this book!

Cute, funny, blooming relationship 🌺

3. Interesting Facts about Space by Emily Austin

Cute & quirky story with a lesbian who loves true crime podcasts, has a fear of bald men, and is making amends with estranged family, what could go wrong? 😉

4. House of Glass by Sarah Pekkanen

Cute flirtation with the possibility of a bidding relationship, along with a terrific story!

5. Strange Folk by Alli Dyer 

Debut author with an Appalachian mountain magic tale. (Editor’s note: while there is a sapphic couple, they’re side characters so the book isn’t in the IHS database.)
