Most f/f romance I have seen books fall into one of two categories: 1) teenage coming out story or 2) 30-40 year old woman always thought she was straight but meets the only woman she is attracted to. She shows no attraction towards any other women for the entire novel. So thanks for these recs

Check out: "The falling in love montage" 4.4/5 on Goodreads 5/5 on Waterstones Overview: When 17-year-old Saoirse is dumped by her girlfriend and former best friend, she decides that dating isn’t worth the heartache, especially since she’s already dealing with her mother’s moving into a home due to dementia, and the revelation of her father’s affair. She doesn’t expect her electric attraction to Ruby, who is visiting her cousin’s family for the season, but when Ruby proposes a summer together modeled after a rom-com-all fun, and no hard feelings when it ends-Saoirse decides to bend her rules. From Ferris wheel rides with prolonged eye contact to skinny dipping at the beach late at night, the two embrace every romantic cliché, but feelings inevitably grow between them, and Saoirse struggles to let down the walls that keep her heart safe. The sweet love story is balanced with Saoirse’s fear of being vulnerable and struggles to accept that her father has found a love of his own, and though the girls never plan for forever, what they create together is special and precious to them both. An emotionally stirring queer romance with witty, playful dialogue

My favorite book of all time is The Weight Of The Stars. It’s wlw, young adult, sorta sci-fi, and the easiest book I have ever read. The best formatting I have seen when it comes to a paperback book in a while. There’s a very diverse set of characters, and even poly representation. It’s also enemies to lovers, so take that how you will. I really recommend reading this book

I recommend Zoe Reed books if you want to read some f/f romance. He has fantasy, contemporary and also a book set in the zombie (I mean, kinda zombie, but with a twist you can say) apocalypse which is my absolute favorite. The zombie one is called Charon Docks at Daylight (and you can even download it for free), my other favorite is Broken Legacies (fantasy, it even has some dragons!).

About the priory of the orange tree - yes, it’s amazing (there’s some interesting stuff about religion) but it takes a while for the plot to pick up and the ending feels quite rushed, also there’s sadly not much time spent on the relationship, so although i definitely agree that it’s worth a read, i’d be careful not to go into it with too high expectations :)

Mira Grant’s zombie series is AMAZING and I love when characters are bi or gay and it comes as a surprise and is treated lightly/not a big deal. Nice recommendations. During the covid19 lockdown my attention span is shot but I work on libraries so I can go in whenever I want and Into the drowning deep is at 1. I tried Tell me how you really feel but the writing was so painful that I gave up. Honestly I’ll stick to rewatching Fleabag vs trying that book again. Ever read Female of the species? Great teen book in my opinion and I really wanted the main characters to have a mutual attraction but it never happened. Though I thought there was potential/subtext. Far from you. Strongly recommend it. Beautiful book. Smart & heartbreaking.

Giant man eating crabs on a creepy ghost ship and is also obviously f/f (I’d say the main character is bi though). Also for Sci-fi The Long Way to A Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers has an f/f romance that is so sweet.
