Become Very Well-Read Without Reading Anything by a Man

Look, I've read and enjoyed a lot of books by men, I just get... tired.
This list includes a range of genres (classics, literary fiction, chick lit, historical fiction, fantasy, sci fi, horror, children's books, YA), all fiction, and should be in order of author surname. I've almost certainly missed a few obvious people out by accident, but I've done my best!
EDIT: For clarity, TERFs and the like are not welcome here. This is not for you. Since this list was published I've learnt that some of the authors are TERFs themselves, disappointingly - that's accidental, and if I could edit it I would.
