/lit/ - Literature

i'm getting close to just dropping female authors altogether. i read three or so books of earthsea, an ostensibly well respected and regarded book and i hated it. i just started doomsday book, a nebula and hugo award winner and it reads like young adult shit. i've read a few others not worth mentioning, like rebel of the sands
it's getting to the point where i look at my reading list, see that the book is written by a woman and just decide against it.
pic related is my reading list, though it's not an exhaustive list of what i've read, it's just books i hadn't heard of before i saw them recommended somewhere online since i got a gmail account. books in green are the books i've decided on putting on my kindle next. books in bold are books i've already read. books in red are books i've found to be irredeemably bad and made me mad enough to not just bold.

gimme your best books by female authors or tell me which books by female authors on my list i should try.
