Celebrating Women Writers for March

All of these books are written by women. They include historical works, literary, mysteries, Sci-fi/ Fantasy, non-fiction and some that defy genres. I tried to include women from a variety of cultures but many of them are American authors. I hope to have gathered a variety of famous and not so famous women who have influenced the art of writing. Please let me know if there are any I should have added to this list.
