sapphic books with a gothic vibe, similar to bitterthorn by kat dunn

[eris !]

hi! i recently read bitterthorn by kat dunn and fell in love with every aspect of the book. i believe my favorite kind of story mixes fantasy/gothic and is usually slow burn, with a lot of repressing feelings (could be enemies to lovers), and i’m trying to find sapphic books along those lines. do you guys have any recommendations?

[the story actually tapped a lot into themes of death and loneliness. the recs don’t need to have that too but if they do 🎇🎇🎇]

Fingersmith by Sarah Waters is perfect for this, especially the gothic atmosphere and repressed feelings

A classic gothic sapphic dark romance is Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu, check the trigger warnings tho
