What Young Adult Science-Fiction books have female main characters?

Roald Ellsworth asked:


I’m writing a science-fiction book with a female main character, and would like to see what’s on the market already. Most of the books I’ve found have male main characters. Do you know any titles? Did you like the books? Thanks everybody.

    The only one I can think of is “The Girl Who Owned a City”. Sorry I don’t remember who wrote it. There was another one called “Children of the Dust” that had a strong female character, but I don’t think she was the main character. Wait, one more-”Invitation to the Game”.

    I’ve written (but haven’t edited or published) a book with a female main character. I do this out of habit, but having a female main character is not as common as having a male main character.

    However, originality counts… if your story line suits her, then by all means…

    GL!
