Sapphic Reading Challenges 2025

This year, Tavern Tale is part of two sapphic fiction reading challenges: One is Jae’s Sapphic Book Bingo; the other is the I Heart SapphFic Reading Challenge, organized by TB Markinson & Miranda MacLeod.

You don’t have to pick one of the reading challenges; you can participate in both to double your fun and your chances of winning one of the prizes. Count each sapphic book you read in 2025 once for the Sapphic Book Bingo and once for the IHS Reading Challenge.
