Every day last #Noirvember, I tweeted out #noirnovelsbywomen: a total of 30 novels by 30 authors, in alphabetical order by author.
The first tweet in that thread is here <> and a list of all 30 novels is attached.

Gonna do something similar this month. This time it will be 30 #vintagenoirnovels, by both men and women authors. For "vintage" my cutoff date for publication is 1965, though I realize that is somewhat arbitrary.
