Just realised that there may already be a thread about this list. Sorry - I didn't search for one first.
Anyway, now I've started so ...
I have read a few of these (underlined). I have seen some of the titles on other people's list of recommendations etc. Just wondered what anyone on here thinks of the titles on here.
I realise the idea of having a separate list for Women's Science Fiction seems a bit odd nowadays, but perhaps it served a useful function at the time...
