I’ve been getting into historical fiction again, for the first time since I was a kid. I‘ve read a few books that I’ve absolutely adored, but now I’m kind of stuck.
I’m mainly looking for books about queer or feminist history, and also fiction. I never read nonfiction. Also, I do prefer female protagonists, but I’ll read male if the story’s good.

Queer historical fiction that I’ve enjoyed:

The Lilac People by Milo Todd

Girls, Girls, Girls by Shoshana von Blanckensee

These Heathens by Mia McKenzie

Feminist historical fiction that I’ve enjoyed:

The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali

Daughters of Shandong by Eve J. Chung

The Celestial Wife by Leslie Howard

Women of a Promiscuous Nature by Donna Everhart
