An indispensable book for every readers' advisor offers new reading lists of women's fiction for RA, handouts, websites, or for readers to browse for that next great read.
Created to offer a different perspective on women's fiction and to reach a broad reading audience (including fans), Read On…Women's Fiction: Reading Lists for Every Taste offers new reading paths for women's fiction lovers. Rebecca Vnuk categorizes and lists hundreds of popular women's fiction titles, but her scope is more current and more selective than that found other guides, the tone is lighter and more informal, annotations are shorter and livelier. Most important, the organization and approach are based on various appeal factors of the genre, rather than on the formal genres and subgenres adhered to by other guides.
Use these lists to advise readers; to create thematic reading lists for library websites, flyers, and newsletters; and as checklists or reading plans for those who enjoy women's fiction. Buy two copies—one for the reference and readers advisory desk, and one to circulate!
Rebecca Vnuk, MLIS, has worked as a readers advisory librarian for several libraries and as a collection development specialist for the Chicago Public Library. She is currently the adult services director for the Glen Ellyn Public Library, IL.
