(needless to say - 100authors5booksEach might not be too much of a stretch...)
@kcfromaustcrime @bookstodon I could easily do 50 but I don't like all of them as much now as I did originally, the top 10 have passed the test of time
Interesting - do you have a feeling for why they have dropped out of favour?
I know I've been finding my reread of the Maigret series patchy going - some of them are brilliant / some of them decidedly dodgy when read with current sensibilities, but overall the good is still outweighing the bad ... just :)
@kcfromaustcrime @bookstodon in the 70s there were many women who wrote sci fi eg Joanne Russ, later Barbara Hambly. These books are difficult to find now so tend to be forgotten.
My partner is a big SF reader and has bemoaned exactly the same thing.
