    1. – The Beka Cooper series by Tamora Pierce. Fantasy police procedurals with a teenage female lead.
      – Honestly, Tamora Pierce in general.
      – The Bartimaeus Cycle by Jonathan Stroud.

    2. The Time Travelers Wife by Audrey Niffenegger

      The Awakening by Kate Chopin

      Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert

      Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

      Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

    3. As someone already said, anything by Tamora Pierce, she’s got strong female protagonists in all her books.

    4. The Scholomance series by Naomi Novik. It’s urban fantasy about a girl trying to survive in a magic school where monsters try to kill the students. There’s some adult language but no smut.

      The Bear and the Nightingale series by Katherine Arden. It’s historical fantasy about a young girl growing up in 14th century Rus (Russia still under Mongol rule). No smut.

      The Old Kingdom series by Garth Nix. It’s YA/high fantasy.

      The Song of the Lioness Quarter by Tamora Pierce was one of my fave series growing up. It’s YA fantasy and she has other series in the same universe.

    5. Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu

      The Female of the Species by Mindy McGinnis (this one has some adult themes though)
