Niche Moodboards: Black Sapphic Creepy Books
**Disclaimer: “I Feed Her To The Beast” has a main character who ends up in a relationship with a man. I can’t remember if she’s bisexual (I read the book really fast because it was that good, so there’s a lot I unfortunately can’t remember) but there are other sapphic characters in the book so I think it still counts.**
