Episode Details

In the Book Appreciation segments, our featured authors (or your host) will talk about one or more favorite books with queer female characters in a historic setting.

In this episode Kelly Aten recommends some favorite queer historical novels:

Books mentioned

• Other Girls by Diane Ayres
• Alma Mater by Rita Mae Brown
• Cinder and the Smoke by Geonn Cannon [Note: in discussing the book, there is an assertion that having a female Pinkerton agent in the 19th century made the story non-historic, but see for example Pinkerton agent Kate Warne one of the first women hired by Pinkerton in the 1850s]
• Storm by Kim Pritekel
• Cobb Island by Blayne Cooper
• Balance of Forces: Toujours ici by Ali Vali
• When Women Were Warriors by Catherine M. Wilson
