>Frankenstein
>Pride and Prejudice
These are the only books I've read in my entire life that were (ostensibly) written by women.
Are there any others I should spend my limited time on Earth reading or should I stick with male authors?

I'm not even Catholic, but Teresa of Avila is worth reading.

overall frankenstien (the only book "written" by a female that ive read) is boring shit but you can really tell the parts that percy just wrote entirely himself like that ending speech frank gives to the sailors who want to sail back

You should read some of Austen's other stuff. Emma is my favorite book of hers.
