My Flirtations by Ella Hepworth Dixon audiobook.
Genre: comedy
Many novels, most notably Hannah Webster's The Coquette, focused on how terrible it is for a woman to flirt before her marriage. 'I did not speak 20 sentences before sir Robert proposed to me', explained Lady Bidulph while teaching her daughter how to court properly in 'Memoirs of Miss Sidney Bidulph'. A coquette must be a fool, wicked, and immoral. But Peggy is none of these. She sees things as they are, sometimes too much for her own good, and flirts with men she finds interesting. She decides to tell about them, from her point of view. The feelings, the reasons they did not keep in touch, and her 'notions' about them. This is her way to examine late Victorian society including the lives of other oppressed minorities. This novel is considered semi autobiographical

The Adventures of Elizabeth in Rugen by Elizabeth von Arnim audiobook.
Genre: adventure
In this semi-autobiographical travel comedy of manners, Elizabeth von Arnim sends her quick-witted alter ego, Elizabeth, off to the Baltic island of Rugen in the summer of 1901 with an unlikely expedition: a maid, a driver, a carriage stacked with luggage, and a woman friend who seems determined to knit through every surprise the road can offer. Elizabeth dreams of exploring the island on foot for the pure freedom of it, but plans rarely survive first contact with weather, timetables, and other people's ideas of what a lady ought to do. As the carriage rolls from seaside views to village encounters, Elizabeth sketches the landscape with rapturous attention and turns her sharp, self-deprecating humor on the petty tyrannies of comfort and convention. Along the way she collects a gallery of memorable figures: a snobbish bishop's wife, her personable son, a dressmaker, and an unexpected cousin, Charlotte, whose complicated domestic situation threatens to turn a quiet holiday into a social tangle. Part travelogue, part character study, this is a charming, observant journey that finds adventure in the smallest detours.

Nana by Emile Zola audiobook.
Genre: tragedy
In the glittering yet rotten heart of Paris under the Second Empire, Nana rises from the working-class streets to become the city's most notorious courtesan. Introduced amid the heat of the theater world, she is young, magnetic, and dangerous, a woman whose beauty turns desire into obsession and appetite into ruin. As financiers, aristocrats, politicians, and soldiers compete for her attention, Zola follows the ripple effect of Nana's presence through drawing rooms, racing tracks, and back alleys, exposing a society that prizes spectacle while hiding its corruption. Nana herself is no simple seductress: driven by hunger, pride, and the need to survive, she discovers how quickly power can shift when everyone wants to possess you. With a cast of men and women pulled into her orbit, the novel builds a relentless portrait of ambition, hypocrisy, and moral decay, asking who truly holds control in a world built on money and illusion. Bold, unsparing, and darkly vivid, Nana is a scandalous social panorama and a study of desire as a force that consumes both its target and its worshippers.
