Listless Monday was inspired by both Amanda at A Bookshelf Monstrosity's feature Books by Theme and Court at Once Upon a Bookshelf's Listed feature. Be sure to check out their lists!
I'm super happy to be back with my Listless Mondays, though I'm posting rather later than usual today (long weekend with 48 Hour Book Challenge). This week, I'm borrowing another idea from the yalsa-bk listserv (best idea-central ever). This time, it is a list of books where girls dress as boys. I thought it was an awesome idea, so here are some of the books suggested there and a few I came up with:
Girls in Disguise
Alanna by Tamora Pierce
Alphabet of Dreams by Susan Fletcher
Anna Sunday by Sally M. Keehn
Behind Rebel Lines by Seymour Reit
Bloody Jack by L.A. Meyer
The Bone Doll's Twin by Lynn Flewelling (suggested by Brenda)
Crane by Jeff Stone
Daughter of Venice by Donna Jo Napoli
The Education of Bet by Lauren Baratz-Logsted
Eon: Dragoneye Reborn by Alison Goodman
Girl in Blue by Ann Rinaldi
A Golden Web by Barbara Quick
The Highwayman's Footsteps by Nicola Morgan
Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld
A Murder for Her Majesty by Beth Hilgartner
Nobody's Princess by Esther Friesner
Nobody's Prize by Esther Friesner
Pirates! by Celia Rees
Pope Joan by Donna Woolfolk Cross (suggested by Suey)
Rowan Hood by Nancy Springer
Seven Daughters and Seven Sons by Barbara Cohen and Bahija Lovejoy (an old favorite of mine!)
Soldier's Secret by Sheila Solomon Klass
Sovay by Celia Rees
Star-Crossed by Linda Collison
Any additions?
