I am hosting this challenge and you can read about it on the post Women's Fiction Challenge 2015.
I ask anyone joining the challenge to define women's fiction as there are a number of thoughts and ideas about it around the globe.
For me I would label a book women's fiction if the main focus of the book is on a woman or women and how they change and develop throughout the book. Really its my favourite kind of book these days. It may involve romance, but that is not the main focus, it may or may not have a happy ending, but it does have a satisfying one.
The post by Amy Sue Nathan on Women's Fiction Writers best spells out what I call women's fiction.
