250+ Sapphic Books Coming Out in 2026

January 10, 2026 by Danika Ellis

As part of writing the Our Queerest Shelves newsletter for Book Riot, I keep a running list of upcoming queer book releases. Since we’re at the beginning of the year, I wanted to share with you my list of 250+ sapphic books coming out this year, sortable and searchable by genre, release date, and representation. These are all either fiction with sapphic main characters or nonfiction about/inclusive of queer women. You can filter by representation if you’re only interested in F/F romances.

This isn’t a complete list, of course. It’s impossible for me to keep track of all the self-published books that come out, for example, and I’m sure I’ve missed even big releases or gotten some details wrong; this is just the notes I’ve been working with to create lists on Our Queerest Shelves.

So, without further ado, here is the link to my spreadsheet of 250+ the sapphic books of 2026. Feel free to make a copy and filter it however you’d like (for example, to only show the sci-fi books). There are more notes in the second tab, if you’d like more information.
