what are YOU looking for that doesn't exist?
I know this sub is about recommending books, but as a writer and prolific reader who finds very VERY few sapphic books that really move me, I'm curious what your 'holy grail' story would be? I feel there must be this huge array of interests/asks that are woefully underserved by the existing offerings, which increasingly confuse spicy for lots of sex on page, lack narrative tension and just feel kind of generic. For example, mine is two highly competent/mature (ideally 30+), non-caucasian women, contemporary setting, excruciatingly slow burn and tense, literary tier writing. Probably not HEA. I find elements of these things across different books but never in a single story (and really, who wants a single story, we all want multiple versions of the flavour we're looking for).
