This is from a 2023 article in "Vogue." Bernardine Evaristo listed a groups of novels by black, British female authors that she thinks are really good. Then she added a lengthy list of black, British female authors that she thinks more people should go out and read. I have listed the books she mentioned; and, for the author list, I chose a representative book for each author.
It's quite a mixed array of genres, including literary fiction, romance, crime and children's books.
Have fun, and support female authors.
