Female authors meme

I enjoy memes that allow me to think about past readings, and when I saw this at Phantom's it caught my eye. My preferred addition to the list at the moment would be Gertrude Stein - I just read her Three Lives and was taken by her style. Maybe I'll post an excerpt later.

Instructions: Bold the ones you've read. Italicize the ones you've been wanting/might like to read. ??Place question marks by any titles/authors you've never heard of?? Plus I'm adding this, as Turtlebella noted that the choice of books by each author is a mite idiosyncratic: put an asterisk if you've read something else by the same author.

Alcott, Louisa May–Little Women
Allende, Isabel–The House of Spirits
Angelou, Maya–I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
Atwood, Margaret–Cat's Eye
Austen, Jane–Emma
*Bambara, Toni Cade–Salt Eaters
Barnes, Djuna–Nightwood
de Beauvoir, Simone–The Second Sex
Blume, Judy–Are You There God? It's Me Margaret
Burnett, Frances–The Secret Garden
Bronte, Charlotte–Jane Eyre
Bronte, Emily–Wuthering Heights
Buck, Pearl S.–The Good Earth. It seems like everyone had to read this in high school except me. But that's not exactly a recommendation...
Byatt, A.S.–Possession
Cather, Willa–My Antonia. I just read Cather's The Professor's House and really enjoyed it; from the cover of my dad's copy of My Antonia I always imagined it would be an incredibly boring book about prairie life, but I'm suspecting that's not actually the case.
Chopin, Kate–The Awakening
Christie, Agatha–Murder on the Orient Express. Big Hercule Poirot fan when I was in 8th-9th grades. Used to watch the PBS version on TV with my mom.
Cisneros, Sandra–The House on Mango Street
Clinton, Hillary Rodham–Living History
??Cooper, Anna Julia–A Voice From the South??
Danticat, Edwidge–Breath, Eyes, Memory
Davis, Angela–Women, Culture, and Politics
Desai, Anita–Clear Light of Day
Dickinson, Emily–Collected Poems. Can't say I've read the works, but I do have a familiarity.
Duncan, Lois–I Know What You Did Last Summer. Ooh, that one takes me back to, oh, 6th grade? My good friend and I were obsessed with Lois Duncan, and would creep each other out over them.
DuMaurier, Daphne–Rebecca. Another book I have a strong aversion to reading - it's melodrama, right?
Eliot, George–Middlemarch
??Emecheta, Buchi–Second Class Citizen??
Erdrich, Louise–Tracks
Esquivel, Laura–Like Water for Chocolate
Flagg, Fannie–Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe
Friedan, Betty–The Feminine Mystique
Frank, Anne–Diary of a Young Girl
Gilman, Charlotte Perkins–The Yellow Wallpaper
*Gordimer, Nadine–July's People
Grafton, Sue–S is for Silence
Hamilton, Edith–Mythology
Highsmith, Patricia–The Talented Mr. Ripley
hooks, bell–Bone Black
*Hurston, Zora Neale–Dust Tracks on the Road
Jacobs, Harriet–Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl. Mmm, wouldn't really recommend it - it's important in a literary-historical way in that it was the first slave narrative written by a woman and documenting the systematic abuse of female slaves by white men.

Picoult, Jodi–My Sister's Keeper
