The Lesbrary Tumblr



The Basics

I run the Lesbrary, and I'm also on booktube and goodreads.

Check out the Lesbrary Goodreads Project for lists of les/bi/etc books by topic and genre

See the Master List of Lesbian & Bi Women Books Recommendations for my favourites!

Support Bi & Lesbian Lit and the Lesbrary on Patreon for monthly book giveaways, or buy us a coffee on ko-fi if you're feeling generous!

Mostly lesbian lit, always bi-, ace-, aro- and trans-inclusive.

Anonymous: do you know of any wlw obscure fairytale based books? barring that, any bath based ones?

lgbtqreads:

Alas, I only know common fairytales, e.g.

Anyone else have recs??

By Bath-based, do you mean set in Bath? (In which case I do not; maybe @fuckyeahlesbianliterature does?) Or centered around the Wife of Bath? (In which case perhaps there’s something in the upcoming Feral Youth?)

Sorry I’m failing you here but I hope someone following can be more helpful!

There are Goodreads lists for more Lesbian Fairy Tales and Lesbian Retellings, but most of them are the famous fairy tales. 

Kissing the Witch by Emma Donoghue I believe has some more obscure fairy tales. Sleeping Beauty, Indeed & Other Lesbian Fairytales by JoSelle Vanderhooft is supposed to include some obscure ones (I haven’t read it myself). Maybe The Spindle and Other Lesbian Fairy Tales by Carolyn Gage as well? The Czech fairy tale “The Wood Maiden” is worth reading for its lesbian undertones.

I wasn’t able to find any wlw books set in Bath, unfortunately!
