But I think people who like relationship books (especially with a wry or sarcastic edge), probably women, would love your books. My favorite authors are Marge Piercy, Joyce Carol Oates, Emma Donoghue, J.R.R. Tolkien, Susan Vreeland, Alexander McCall Smith, J.K. Rowling, Harriet Doerr, and Jane Hamilton. Mostly women writers. I can't wait to see the cover!
