I agree with LNATTC it was very good!

I’m not sure if this has the same feel as the books you mentioned but Music from another world(1970s) and Pulp(1950s) by Robin Talley are good( I especially liked Music from another world).

I’d definitely recommend Sarah Waters — especially The Night Watch, which is set in 1940s London. While not all of her books fall in the 40s–80s range, they’re amazing sapphic historical novels. And if you want something strictly within those decades, you might also check out Patricia Highsmith’s Carol (50s), Jane Rule’s Desert of the Heart (60s), or Katherine V. Forrest’s Curious Wine (80s)

The original title of Carol is the price of salt btw
