50 must-read fantasy books by women

Sarah Davis suggests a smorgasbord of novels for the summer, all fantasy, all by women.

You’ll find a range of sub-genres represented, from portal fantasy to epic fantasy and everything in between. Featuring middle grade, YA, and adult novels, these unmissable fantasy books by women authors reflect the diversity of the genre—and its endlessly magical opportunities.

First pick is All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders, which I've been looking forward to since Cory's stellar review here at BB. Then I'm checking out Tomi Adayemi's Children of Blood and Bone, recommended to me by none other than ██████████.
