    Great theme! This was a very tricky puzzle for me - I knew ALICEWALKER right away and managed to figure out IDAB WELLS but I struggled with the rest of the themers - gotta read up!

      Sorry it was so hard! I tried to pick authors from different genres, so there should be something for everyone. Thanks for featuring it!
