Sex / Books "Really Good Books About Lesbians"
Posted by Anna Minard on Wed, Feb 22, 2012 at 11:49 AM
It's a beautiful day! What are you going to take to the park to read at lunch? The Hairpin's Nicole Cliffe has some answers.
I spent a few summers working at a womyn's bookstore playing the same Joni Mitchell album on loop, and much of my childhood at my lesbian aunt's house, surrounded by rigorously progressive Canadian children's books about good touch/bad touch, so, for a basically straight woman who just... loves lesbians and their books, I feel adequately informed to recommend these super-awesome Sapphic reads. Enjoy! Support your local completely economically unsound womyn's bookstore.
Check out that book cover... “She never knew what she wanted—until she came to Greenwich Village and found the love that smolders in the shadows of the twilight world.” Or if you've already read all of these, you can head to Questionland for personalized recommendations.
