BOTNS Podcast #182: You Appreciate Under-Appreciated Women Writers




Books on the Nightstand show

Summary: Finally, it's our long-promised show featuring all of your suggestions for David, who called our voicemail line asking for recommendations of under-appreciated women writers. Thank you so much to everyone who called in and created the wonderful list you see below. Since this was all about the writers, I linked each author's name to her Author Page on Goodreads, which lists all of her titles. I also included the specific titles recommended by the callers.

Bryant * Imogen Robertson (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2776854.Imogen_Robertson), Instruments of Darkness and Anatomy of Murder * Bailey White (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/136185.Bailey_White), Mama Makes Up Her Mind * Michael Lee West (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/126453.Michael_Lee_West), She Flew the Coop * Judy Budnitz (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/28450.Judy_Budnitz), If I Told You Once * Mary Doria Russell (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4007.Mary_Doria_Russell), Doc * Sonja Livingston (http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/3024342.Sonja_Livingston), Ghostbread and, in a bonus topic, I just had to include a call from Shannon, who called to tell us that she does re-read, but "not that much." Of course, she then goes on to list ten books she re-reads every few years: The Harry Potter series (http://www.goodreads.com/series/45175-harry-potter), The Mists of Avalon (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/402045.The_Mists_of_Avalon), The Daughter of Time (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/77661.The_Daughter_of_Time), and The Stand (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9813753-the-stand). But really, she doesn't re-read that much...!
