Literary Fiction Books Worth Reading

Literary fiction:
​Aside from subject matter, literary fiction tends to be written with emphasis on prose style. While genre fiction is “transparent” (readers can see through the text to escape into the story itself), literary writers want the reader to notice how beautiful the writing is.
Women's fiction:
An umbrella term for women centered books that focus on women's life experience that are marketed to female readers, and includes many mainstream novels or woman's rights Books. It is distinct from Women's writing, which refers to literature written by (rather than promoted to) women.
