This week’s Sapphic Book Bingo category is an unusual one. For this square, read a sapphic book with a main character who has the same or a similar job as you. The “you” means you, the reader, not the same job as the author!
It can also be a job you used to do in the past. If you can’t find a book that matches your job exactly, pick one that comes as close as possible.
Also feel free to join my Facebook group for readers to ask for a book recommendation if you have problems finding a book. The readers in my group are amazing at finding the perfect book for everyone!
400 sapphic books & jobs represented in them

Adding two more careers not listed from the same book, Written in the Stars: actuary and astrologer
Thanks! I just added them.
I need all the unemployed ones lol
Teacher’s Aide and Teacher’s Assistant, but not teacher? I assume it’s because it is a profession featured prominently.
Actually, teachers are under elementary, high school, middle school teacher.
Only high school, middle school teachers and college professors. No elementary school teachers?!
I just added them to the post! “On the Rocks” by Georgia Beers and “Marry Me” by Melissa Brayden have an elementary teacher.
Hi, do you also have a recommendation for an architect? Thanks :)
Yes! I just added “By Design” by J.A. Armstrong to the list.
Thanks a lot :)
Loving Outside the Lines by Abigail Taylor for illustrators.
Thanks! I added it to the list!
lost at Sea by Amanda Radley female Capitan …As a former worker in a cruise ship thats the closest i got someone doing what i did^^
I added it to the list!
Love Me Not by Emma Thingsted is just so amazing. If you haven’t read it yet, please give it a chance it’s really that good!!!
Hi! There are some more here and the best part is that they are all amazing books!
Yoga instructor: The Love Conspiracy – JJ Arias
Talent Agent – Any of the Dominion Series Books – JJ Arias
Comic Book Artist: Outdrawn – Deanna Grey
Thank you! I just added them!
Hello,
Are there any warehouse worker recommendations? Not a boss.
I think Where Love Leads by KC Luck has a main character who’s a warehouse worker.
Foe those of us who were printers or press operators, Barbara Wilson wrote a brief series of mystery books featuring Pam Nilsen, a member of a printing shop collective. The first is Murder in the Collective, written in 1984.
Thank you! Just added it to the list!
Susan X Meagher – “Summer of Love” has a character working part time help keep old printing equipment working.
Judy Kerr has 2 novels featuring a cool Postal Inspector: “Black Friday” and “Silent Service”.
VK Powell – “Captain’s Choice” has an Architect.
As always Jae – you go above and beyond. Thank YOU. In one week, this list will add years to my TBR list!! You are AWESOME!!
Aww, thank you!
Hi. Do you know about any book featuring an electrician or construction worker?
For construction worker, I’d suggest Something So Grand by Lynn Galli and for electrician New Girl on the Street by Donna Jay.
“Charming the Vicar” by Jenny Frame and “This is my Body,” “The Rector’s Wedding,” and “The Vanishing Bridge” from the Hobbs Series by Elena Graf for, of all things, Priest.
And I’m *so* happy to get more suggestions for this or any other religious professionals. We’re out here :)
Thanks! I added it!
Nuns in a contemplative monastery.
“In This Small Spot” and “An Unlit Candle” by Caren J. Werlinger.
OMG ❣️😂From A to Z you Never cease to amaze me 😅❣️📚📖✒️Stay brilliant Jae
How about cab/taxi driver? Zero City by Geonn Cannon
Thank you! I just added it.
no farmer or retired soldier
Actually, there is a book for “farmer” listed–Tagan Shepard’s Pumpkin Spice. Another option is The Holiday Detour by Jane Kolven, which has a pig farmer.
For retired military, I just added Ask Me Again by EJ Noyes.
What about an outdoor guide or a tour guide?
What about a pathologist?
“Gallows Humor” by Carolyn Elizabeth and “Heart Stop” by Radclyffe feature a pathologist. I just added it to the list.
