From BDSM adventures to transformative love stories.
As voted by Goodreads users, these are the best queer, bisexual, pansexual and lesbian erotica works out there - from short stories about kink to novels about transformative love.
Goodreads says: "Nan King, an oyster girl, is captivated by the music hall phenomenon Kitty Butler, a male impersonator extraordinaire treading the boards in Canterbury. Through a friend at the box office, Nan manages to visit all her shows and finally meet her heroine. Soon after, she becomes Kitty's dresser and the two head for the bright lights of Leicester Square where they begin a glittering career as music-hall stars in an all-singing and dancing double act. At the same time, behind closed doors, they admit their attraction to each other and their affair begins."
Goodreads says, "a cornucopia of lesbian kink — tantalising tales rich in variety and saucy details of girls put in their place — and held there firmly. A girly-girl reaps a sweet punishment for refusing to mess up her oh-so-pink lipstick and a well-equipped top takes charge. Whether readers dream of surrendering to a lover or of taking control, Say Please offers plenty of erotic inspiration and gives readers exactly what they want!"
Goodreads says, "Rachel has had a crush on her spin instructor Toni for months. One late night visit to the locker room steam cabin transforms her fantasies into hot, steaming reality. Warning: This title contains graphic language and f/f sex."
Goodreads says, "During a night of Web surfing for celeb gossip and masturbatory material, digital marketing producer Suzanne Kim stumbles across an intriguing thread while checking her profile on kinklife.com. Suzanne isn’t exactly looking, but the request for a very specific type of submissive from the attractive mistress, Mami-P, is hard to resist. Though the two hit it off during their first online conversation, Suzanne never imagines how strong their real life attraction and compatibility will be. After a few missteps in training, trust, and communication, Suzanne finds a deep love with her mistress, Pilar."
Note: This title includes BDSM and sexual situations some readers may find objectionable.
Goodreads says, "In a world on the far edge of desire, two women are drawn together by power, passion, and dark pleasures. When Kyle Kirk embarks on a daring exploration of her most secret fantasies, she finds that Dane, the stranger who guides her on the journey of self-discovery, awakens something far more dangerous than her senses. In the dark hours of the night, when passions rule and the barriers of convention are stripped away, both Dane and Kyle are forced to confront the true nature of what has long lain buried within their hearts."
Goodreads says, "When it was first published in 1988, Patrick Califia's Macho Sluts, a collection of S/M stories set in San Francisco's dyke bathhouses, sex parties, and S/M gay bars, shocked the lesbian community and caused an upheaval in the field of queer publishing. Nobody had ever written so frankly about the kinky potential of woman-to-woman sex (and nobody has ever done it any better). If any book is responsible for the formation of the modern lesbian leather community, this one is it."
Goodreads says, "Three months before her wedding to her post-college sweetheart, reality show producer Annie Collins finally acknowledges her dormant desires. Wrapped in the arms of another woman—her trainer, Oksana Gorinkov—Annie experiences a physical heat she never knew existed. Soon the one-night stand meant to be her final farewell to the single life stretches into a consuming month-long affair, the genuine intensity of which neither woman can ignore. Annie sees where her heart belongs, and though the objections from her family and friends and the scars from Oksana’s ex threaten to drive them back to their respective sides of Los Angeles, Annie knows she must fight for this relationship, a real love worth much more than any fantasy she’s ever dreamed up."
Goodreads says, "After a traumatic event that has left her in deep need of healing, Ella Goodman returns to her hometown in Oregon. While staying at her family’s cabin at the West Waters lake resort, she finds an unexpected friend in level-headed owner Kay Brody. But Ella’s sole objective is to restore the broken ties with her family, and she has no time for distractions like falling in love. The healing process is confrontational and difficult though, and she is soon forced to realise that people like Kay only come along once in a lifetime."
Goodreads says, "Fifteen years may have passed since graduation, but it has not been enough time for Jessie to get over losing Kiera, her first love. To make matters worse, Kiera had never even known Jessie, her best friend, was in love with her. Now both friends have returned to their home town for a class reunion. Can a late night encounter in a dark hotel room rekindle the flame that was never quite extinguished?"
Goodreads says, "Every sorority has its secrets... And college freshman Ginger Carmichael couldn't care less. She has more important things on her mind, like maintaining her perfect GPA. No matter how much she can't stand the idea of the cliques and the matching colours, there's something about the girls of Alpha Beta Omega—their beauty, confidence, and unapologetic sexuality—that draws Ginger in. But once initiation begins, Ginger finds that her pledge is more than a bond of sisterhood, it’s a lifelong pact to serve six bloodthirsty demons with a lot more than nutritional needs.Despite her fears, Ginger falls hard for the immortal queen of this nest, and as the semester draws to a close, she sees that protecting her family from the secret of her forbidden love is much harder than studying for finals."
Goodreads says, "Dr. Ali Torveau knows just how fragile life can be— she sees death and tragedy every day in the trauma unit. Battling the dark forces of fate is her life’s work and she doesn’t want or need anything else, certainly nothing as transient as love. Plenty of women try to change her mind, but she never has any trouble saying no. Not until the day firefighter Beau Cross shows up in her ER and sets Ali’s carefully ordered world aflame."

Listen, even in the midst of a global pandemic , there are tonnns of ways to get your sexual imagination going. And while the most common methods might be watching or listening to porn , allow me to put you on to something that is gaining more and more popularity: reading erotica.
In general, erotica is considered to be any kind of writing and art that has a sexual overtone. (So, hi, if you’ve ever found yourself scanning a novel looking for those extra steamy sex scenes, odds are, you’re probably into erotica.)
The beauty of this kind of writing is that there are tons of subgenres within it depending on what you like. Oh, and often it can be easily read in plain view of others. Win-win.
The best part of erotica: There are looooads of inclusive reading options for the LGBTQ+ community, oftentimes created by and for queer folks specifically. So for your reading and viewing pleasure, here are some of the best lesbian erotica options you can find out there. Enjoy!
When it comes to finding steamy reads online, Literotica is the ultimate jumping off point. Since starting in 1998, it now has one of the largest evolving encyclopedia of sex stories, fantasy tales, and erotica. The site is also completely submission-based, and they also regularly host open-call story contests, in case you’re inspired to share a fantasy or favorite sex story of your own.
The best way to find exactly what you’re into is by searching the site’s many tags. And for the purpose of this article, sift through the “queer” or “lesbian sex story” tags to find a host of stories about everything from butch queer doms to sweet roommate fantasies.
If you have some more ~extreme tastes~ but don’t feel ready to dive all the way into BDSM land, the Sugarbutch Chronicles is a great place to start. Plus, it's run by a queer non-binary writer, teacher, and dominant Sinclair Sexsmith.
Since its launch in 2006, it has become one of the most inclusive resources for sexy stories that are not only informative but actually well-written. Whatever you’re into, more than likely you will find something that will pique your sexual interests. Oh, and there’s tons of content to explore that consists of both personal stories by Sexmith and other queer folk.
Founded by feminist filmmaker Erika Lust, X Confessions is a crowd-sourced website that consists of real life sex confessions of people. (Really, people are encouraged to log on and anonymously share their sexual escapades in a nonjudgmental space.)
So if you’re into graphic descriptions of a steamy night two people had together or you want something more romantic, you can def find what you’re looking for here. I mean, the site has become so popular that it’s even produced its own shorts based on people’s experiences.
JSYK, though: The site doesn’t exclusively cater to the queer crowd, but it is chock-full of LGBTQ+ stories. And when you need a break from reading, you can also switch over to the site’s video library for some ~visual~ fun.
When it comes to being an online source for the LGBTQ+ community, Nifty is one site that has been around for a while. Since 1992, they have curated thousands of stories for your eyes that are centered around the queer community—from full length novels to shorter reads. Promise, Nifty has a little something for everyone.
Plus, it is set up in a way where you can find lots of groupings of stories from bondage, science fiction, college, and more.
(Warning: The site’s overall interface does feel a little lofi, but their content speaks for itself and is definitely a go-to when seeking out queer erotica.)
Lush Stories is a one stop shop for all of your erotica needs. Catering to both queer and straight audiences, there are looooads of options here for you to quell your erotica thirst. You can also try your hand at writing erotica and upload it to their site as well—but no worries if you're just after a few steamy reads.
The site even includes free chat rooms, groups, and profiles if you want to sign up and do more than just read. (Just remember to be cautious and not reveal personal information when using these features.)
Good news: This is one site that has a lot of options for people who are looking for various kinds of sexy reads. Novel trove has over 50 options for sub genres of erotica and 100s of stories for LGBTQ+ folx. Things range from wild to mild, so whether you're looking for something more in the fetish department or something sweet and romantic, it's all there.
Best of all? It's free and can be accessed without a profile.
As unlikely as it sounds, Reddit is another source of crowd-sourced, anonymous erotica that is just one click away. Because submissions don’t require a name to be attached to them, this lets people let their imaginations run wild and it also makes it more accessible.
However, sometimes the content can be problematic, so be advised when scrolling through. Knowing the lingo and subthreads to search is also key when doing your searches. My recommendations:
The more trafficked forums are generally heavily moderated and other users do tend to follow the rules, however just be mindful where you click. Be selective and try to avoid going down the reddit rabbit hole of external links that can take you away from the site.
Zines, which are small-circulating, self-published works, are another way to go for when you are looking for a sexy read. The cool thing is they exist both online and in physical form depending on how you prefer to read. Oh, and there are loads of LGBTQ+ erotica options.
I recommend Smut Peddlers: Lusting in Isolation Zine , which is a series of short stories written by several authors, which features queer and trans POC at the center of them. (Trust me, this type of series is totally expanding contemporary erotica.) There's also Queer Zine Archive Project (QZAP) , which has some queer centered sexy reads as well.

Looking for a list of the best lesbian books and novels? I’ve got you covered. In this article, guest author Karen Zibets shares 50 of her favourite lesbian fiction titles of all time.
I can’t think of many better human experiences than getting your head buried into a really good book. I love that a book can transport me to another place or time, where I can escape the world and lose myself in my imagination.
I’ve always loved to read; however, I only recently started to get into lesbian novels. (I was more of a lesbian movie kinda gal.) And in all honesty, I had no idea how extensive and diverse the lesbian fiction genre is.
With that in mind, I was thrilled to find so many incredible lesbian books that have helped and continue to help shape our generation. And in this guide, I share with you 50 of my favourites.
From the lesbian classics and lesbian romance novels all the way through to lesbian erotica and fantasy novels, there’s a little something for everyone.
So, let’s get to it. Here are 50 of the best lesbian books and novels from both past and present.

Let’s start with one of the most famous lesbian books of all time. Authored by the remarkable Sarah Waters, Fingersmith centres around Sue Trinder.
Sue is an orphaned pickpocketer raised on the streets of Victorian London by a baby farmer named Mrs. Sucksby.
One evening, a professional con man and beloved friend of Mrs. Sucksby, arrives with an attractive proposition for Sue.
He plans to win the hand of the naive heiress Maud Lilly, to get his hands on her inheritance. But first, he requires Sue to win a position as Maud’s maid, to help in his twisted plan of deception.
Enticed by the small fortune reward, and with little thought of the consequences, Sue agrees to the plan. However, when the two young women develop an unexpected bond, Sue begins to regret her decision.
Did you know that Fingersmith was adapted for the big screen? The Handmaiden is one of our favourite lesbian movies of all time.
While Sarah Waters debut may not be as acclaimed as Fingersmith , it’s regarded nonetheless as one of the best lesbian fiction novels of the 21st century.
Set again in Victorian Britain, Tipping the Velvet charts Nan King, a young girl obsessed with the cross-dressing theatre sensation, Kitty Butler.
After managing to blag tickets for all of her shows, one day fate is on Nans side, and she gets to meet her idol in person. A friendship forms and before long they become a double act, performing shows at top venues all over London.
On stage, they are an all-singing and dancing phenomenon. Behind closed doors, their relationship develops into more than just friends.
The pair embark on a passionate love affair, but what follows is no happy ever after.
In this lesbian classic, we get far more than we bargained for, as the story jumps from present to past, carrying us through a variety of gripping events.
The book begins with bored housewife Evelyn, who while visiting her Mother-in-Law at her care home sparks up a conversation with pensioner Mrs Threadgoode.
Mrs Threadgoode goes on to tell her life story to Evelyn, focusing on the exploits of rebellious tomboy Idgie and her close friend Ruth.
When Evelyn learns of Mrs Threadgoodes colourful past, it encourages her to make some changes for the better in her own life.
