Speculative Fiction for Women's History Month

March is Women's History Month! Some of the novels on this list, all written by women with female main characters, explore the past, and some imagine the future. But all of them pose questions about women's roles in society, how those roles have changed throughout time, and how they might change—or not—as we move forward.
