It’s time to vote in the latest Best of the Best poll!
How do we decide on the sapphic books to include in these polls? We value reader input, so we ask them on Patreon to nominate their favorites. We take those nominations to create a best of the best poll and put it to the readers for a vote.
Voting is a fantastic way to show your favorite authors some rainbow love.
Find the winners to previous polls right here.

Before we get to the Best of the Best poll, it’s time for Guess the Author
Every week we’ll provide five clues about a sapphic author. This game helps readers get to know their favorite authors while having fun.
Here is today’s clue:
Clue #4: I usually write action-driven stories about strong women in high-stakes roles (first responders, military, and law enforcement), but this book leans a bit more into romance and was inspired by women who chose adventure, independence, and their own rules.
Don’t forget to check out Friday Feels tomorrow for Clue #5.
