FY Lesbian Literature!

For literature about anyone who doesn't identify as a man and is romantically and/or sexually attracted to others who don't identify as men (not necessarily exclusively). Also, for pictures of said people with books.

This definition includes lesbians, but also bisexual or pansexual women and genderqueer people.

This is a trans*-, genderqueer-, asexual-, intersex-, bisexual-, pansexual-, and queer-friendly tumblr, or at least tries to be (feel free to tell me off if it isn't).

I also run the lesbian book blog The Lesbrary and my personal tumblr is danikathelesbrarian.

Please submit anything that's included in this definition. If not, expect a lot of Willow & Tara from Buffy and Xena & Gabrielle with literature spam.

“There were six books in our house. One was the Bible and two were commentaries on the Bible. My mother was a pamphleteer by temperament, and she knew that sedition and controversy are fired by printed matter. Ours was not a secular house, and my mother was determined that I should have no secular influences.

I asked my mother why we couldn’t have books, and she said, “The trouble with a book is that you never know what’s in it until it’s too late.” I thought to myself, “Too late for what?”
