Reading Women: 500 Books by Female Authors - Page 8

My list (Gen X woman) of books written by female authors. While this list spans multiple genres and centuries and covers the well-known and the not so well-know, I have barely scratched the surface of the amazing books out there that women have written. I have enjoyed reading many of the list and look forward to enjoying the rest in the near future. I get so much enjoyment from reading and I hope you like this list as much as I do. Comment if you have any suggestions or books you thing I have missed
