a smattering of different mythology & legend retellings

All the greek mythology I can find out there! There is a lot of Percy Jackson and then quite a bit more. A mixture of more modern retellings and also the books and plays they're derived from.

Books that remind me of Florence and the Machines song King. Featuring strong female leads. "I need my golden crown of sorrow . My bloody sword to swing. My empty halls echo with grand self mythology." 🎶🎵

Historical Fiction that takes place in Ancient Rome or has protagonists who are Roman, this list is curated to female led stories

40 women, 4 centurys, tons of countries, tons of lenguages. Some of them are worldwide famous, some are more niche, i wanted all of them to stand out for some important reason

I know i'm missing a lot of authors, this isn't a list about the best 40 women, these are just 40 women that i haven't read, and if I have read them, I wanted to read some of their least known books like in the case of sylvia Plath, or continue reading their work like with Robin Hobb or R.F Kuang. If you want to add more to this list please share in the comments

The stories of historical women told from a feminist perspective. Some based in reality, some based in what could have been, all powerful. These women remind you to claim your power and step into your potential, no matter what time period you're living in.

Tired of reading about Julius Caesar? This list is for you. I tried to gather books about Rome in a larger sense. From Britain to Africa, the territory occupied by the romans contains a multitude of stories.
