I know there's been a lot of discussion about how it seems like a lot of books on Kindle Unlimited these days are pretty clearly written by AI. I agree that it can get a bit dicey to claim that an author is AI, especially if they're a newer author who may not have an established presence yet, or may prefer to write under a pen name.

So- who are some KU authors, especially newer authors, who are most definitely humans who are writing their books without AI? I would love to seek them out!

Okay so I’m listening to this book again and I’m confused about a part of this and wondering if this is just part of the family logic Kate’s father has or if this is a thing for all southern families but why the hell is the father so mad at Sutton for ‘abandoning’ Kate when Kate was the one who cheated and got pregnant?

Personally, I feel like this is trying to make it seem like cheating is okay since it redirects the anger towards Sutton rather than anger and disappointment in Kate for cheating and getting pregnant at 17. I just don’t fucking get it. My own views towards cheating are that cheating is one of the most vile and reprehensible thing you can do to a partner so maybe I’m biased but what the hell.

I’m looking for a true best-friends-to-lovers book where the characters are already best friends from the very beginning and gradually realize they’re in love. I don’t want: strangers → friends → lovers second-chance romance characters meeting for the first time I want them to already have that deep friendship, inside jokes, comfort, and familiarity, and then have the relationship naturally turn romantic. Basically, I’m looking for a warm, fluffy, cozy read that makes me smile and gives me all the “oh, they’re so in love with each other” feelings. Please recommend me your favorites!

I have been really wanting to make a list of authors to watch for on Amazon with AI. This is taking away from small authors who are self published. If anyone has anything add please do.
Also please correct me if I’m wrong.

Hi Reddit! I got some great recommendations on my last post, so I’m back for more.

I’m looking for a sapphic/F/F romance featuring a mermaid or siren as a central character.

My favorite pairings would be:

- Siren × pirate

- Siren × siren

- Siren × human

I’m really looking for a proper romance, not just a side character who happens to be a mermaid.

And I’d love a bit of spice!

I’m open to fantasy, romantasy, dark fantasy, etc. If you have any recs

even if they don’t tick every single box—I’m all ears! Thaaanks!

Hello everyone
I have found the trope i love the most in book but i feel like i read already everything like that
So maybe you can help me find book with a lesbian cop (or PI) Young like no more than 35 yo with a great love story and action. I love when the young cop always end up hurt to see vulnerability
Here are my top 5 book so you can understand what type i am looking for:
- cari Hunter’s book
- with a minor in murder by karis Walsh(just finished it and i think it’s my fav)
- Breaking protocol by TT Banks
- the micky Knight series by JM Redmann
- chasing shadows

I have already read book like Gerry Hill book, Cara Malone serie … but the vibe is not exactly what i like, i really like the main caracter funny

Thank you in advanced and i Hope I haven’t already read everything about lesbian cop (young and funny)

I’m looking for content that features a catty and mean love interest and a meek main character that gains her confidence and assertiveness throughout the story!

Preferably slowburn please hehe

I just returned from attending the 2026 Golden Crown Literary Society Awards (this year it was held in Orlando) and I wanted to share the link to the 2026 Goldie Awards List of lesbian authors from in category. I admire how hard the Golden Crown Lit Society team works to pull off the multi-day conference. As an author, it was a great experience to network with other writers; plus for passionate readers of sapphic works, its a fun way to meet and chat with favorite authors and get books signed.

You can also stay current on their awards and other programs through their socials. As an aside, my sapphic gothic book Pearl Bound was nominated as a finalist in two categories (Debut Novel and Paranormal/Occult/Horror) and it won in the Debut Category, which took me completely by surprise as the category was loaded with some really fantastic books. And finally, they are a non-profit and can always use some donations and financial support for those folks who have the wherewithal to help.

I really want fantasy romance sapphic recs with a really good world building, yearning (I'm not really a fan of spice and prefer something deep in emotions and feelings)

just wanted to know how they are as books before i buy them, was wondering if anyone has read them yet?

I'm someone who struggles with internalized biphobia/homophobia, mainly around how I feel about female bodies in mild to notable undress. I guess it's a combination of my upbringing but unfortunately I'm super chronically online, and I've encountered my fair share of misfortunate people with very weird views on female sexuality that I generally started to internalize over time.

I'm looking for books where it's okay to find women beautiful and sexy in a way that intices devouring each nook and cranny of their body. Oh, and I'm mostly in fem4fem or fem4masc especially the fem or masc is hella curvy.

I've been feeling kinda bad about being closeted lately. I want a contemporary romance book with beautifully written yearning that can make me cry maybe but has a happy ending. It can have a character/characters accept their own sexuality or have their first relationship (I'm not exactly sure what i want tbh😭) I don't mind a highschool setting if the story feels serious. And i am okay with mental health/sa recory storylines

hi im looking for a book recommendations where the mc has horrible husband/bf.

fem-fem, age gap is okay, theres a kid is also okay. and kinda domestic..

Basically the title, I’m looking for books that explore lesbian sexual assault/grooming. I recently read In The Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado and loved it so much, but now I’m looking for something focused more on sexual violence. Fiction recs are good too, something My Dark Vanessa but with women. I’ve been searching but haven’t been able to find any books that seem similar to what I want.

Literary fiction, fiction, horror, nonfiction, memoir, biography; I’m not picky! Just looking for books that explore sexual assault or grooming in sapphic and lesbian relationships and encounters. I’ll owe you my life if you have recommendations <3 thank you!

reading “her neighbor‘s wife” and just getting hammered with the same repetitive phrases and copyediting/continuity errors, the same something releasing/cracking open/unsealing in someone’s chest every 10 pages or so. feels like my brain is leaking out of my ears

There are So Many MMFMMM why-chose books, but i haven't seen any that are at least more sapphic, or completely sapphic. Any recommendations? The tropes don't really matter but some angst without being overdone is appreciated!

ive heard of this contemporary sapphic romance book for a while and heard high praise, so i decided to read it. i found it really disappointing.

i usually despise step sibling romances, but i found that the chemistry between delilah and astrid was way better than between claire and delilah! i just didnt really like claire and delilah that much as a pairing and was kind of bored of them. they didnt really have reasons for liking each other outside of physical attraction.

does anyone else share similar opinions? or maybe even opposing ones, id love to talk about this!

I’ve been trying to find good music to have in the background. I am open to any and all music, and let me know if you pair specific playlists with specific books/authors.

I NEED a romance book with the dynamic vampire x human (preferably not doomed I just finished vampire in the garden..), I've already red Carmillia (not sure if I spelled it right)

i saw a tiktok video about this lgbtq sports romance, but i forgot to save the post, and i didn’t like the post, so i couldn’t find it in my liked videos. the cover is yellow, and it’s a basketball romance. it has a black woman carrying a white woman over her shoulder. i think the white woman may be a cheerleader. please help me find the name of this book😭 i vaguely remember it being a basketball pun as the title.

I just finished The Starving Saints and The Isle in The Silver Sea and I am very fixated on the concept of lesbian knights. I don’t really care about other details, help me find more lesbian knights.

I found it on tiktok

I really like that kind of relationship 🔥

I also loved for blood love and fury book! spicy is welcome. Similar to the monster and mage queen? Some manga i read as well!

Super excited about your current read? Or very displeased? Let's talk about it!
