Women in SF&F Month: Readers’ Recommendations Giveaway
For Women in SF&F Month 2013, Renay from Lady Business came up with the idea of compiling a list of recommended speculative fiction books by women.

Women in SF&F Month: Mieneke from A Fantastical Librarian
Today’s guest is Mieneke from A Fantastical Librarian!
