Here are Genta Sebastian’s top sapphic reads of 2025:
1. Promise Me by Tiffany E. Taylor
Tiffany Taylor makes the club Eros a vibrant setting, and Master Kori and Coco, the submissive who isn’t, spring to life on the page. Well written, fast paced, and fun. Plus, spicy!
2. My Sweet Girl by Char Dafoe
The characters are young, tentative, and surprised by love. It’s a sweet, tender, New Adult, Sapphic romance.
3. Spellbound by Lisa Caro and Tiffany E. Taylor
When their always cheerful resident is gutted by the destruction of her dreams, the entire community of Angel Cove come together to save the magic of Christmas. Grumpy Quinn can’t help wanting to restore the undaunting cheer to Noelle’s spirit.
4. Once Upon a Time in December by Alyson Root
I’m a sucker for realistic emotional reactions, and Alyson Root knows how to write emotions. From the break up to recognizing true love, her writing is pitch perfect.
5. A Little Song, A Little Dance by Rebecca Freeman
It’s just too much fun. Two virgin lesbians connect over a stolen bottle of wine, then have to navigate their path to true love through a myriad of hysterical obstacles.
