A poll for the ladies on reading

Please only participate in this poll if you self-identify as having a female gender.
I know it's hard to remember what-all you've read recently, but please try.

UPDATE: for anthologies, please count them as the gender of the majority of the authors.

[Poll #1450250]

Oddly enough, I don't feel like what I've been reading lately is representative of my normal reading habits. I'm usually more evenly split gender-wise (although still around 60/40 or 70/30), but during the summer I always go on a big post-apoc kick, and I always get more recommendations and tips for male authors. That in mind, however, two of the absolute best post-apoc books were by chicks. (I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman and Doomsday Book by Connie Willis.)
