...Great list and what a terrific topic of choice! <br /><br />I've been enjoying some of the new YA with strong female characters, particularly the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer and the Finishing School series by Gail Carriger.Joy Weese Moll (@joyweesemoll)http://www.joyweesemoll.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-33273412792941811562014-05-30T10:23:10.890-07:002014-05-30T10:23:10.890-07:00Luna Lovegood is one of my absolute favourite char...Luna Lovegood is one of my absolute favourite characters! She is just so at peace herself and so kind to everyone! Jamie Sullivan really is adorable! The only think I'd add to your list is maybe a well-written female villain, but then those are even rarer than well-written female characters. It's just such a shame women are upheld to be society's moral paragons when I'd love to see a woman be allowed to be an anti-hero and to be redeemed (be it in fiction or in the cinema) a la Loki for example! Female characters should be just as diverse as male ones, which includes bad ones!<br />Thanks for your post :)<br />Juli @ Universe in WordsJuli Rahelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15367150240867758577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-37166113503778617762014-05-30T05:20:51.995-07:002014-05-30T05:20:51.995-07:00Jane Eyre and Daenerys Targaryen for sure.

I wanted to read more books with strong female leads but couldn't find ones that I liked so I wrote them.
