Book Appreciation with K. Aten

The Lesbian Historic Motif Podcast - Episode 26c

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:

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
