Sapphic low-angst romance (Sapphic Book Bingo 2023 #16)

After last week’s category featured 15 high-angst romances, this week, it’s time for sapphic low-angst romance novels! A low-angst romance is feel-good book that feels like a warm hug. It’s more on the light-hearted side, without a lot of relationship drama. The main characters usually don’t have a traumatic past.

This week’s Sapphic Book Bingo category features angsty sapphic romance novels.

An angsty or high-angst romance is a book in which the author puts the characters (and the readers) through the emotional wringer.

When it comes to romance novels, “angst” usually means that the characters are going through inner turmoil and painful emotions such as longing, dread, fear, pain, and insecurity. There might be trauma and heartbreak before they characters finally get their happily ever after.

New sapphic author (Sapphic Book Bingo 2023 #14)

I’m always trying to help out new sapphic authors who are just getting started or who aren’t very well-known yet, so for this week’s category of the Sapphic Book Bingo, please read a book written by a new or new-to-you author. 

For the sake of the book bingo, “new author” means someone who has written no more than two novel-length books (not counting shorter works) at the time you read their book.
