A few of my favorite "strong" girls from recent reads:

Isabel (Chains / Anderson) because she manages in nearly impossible situations.

Lucky (Patron) because she is curious and resourceful, and just a little mean.

Calpurnia Virginia Tate (Kelly) because she is attempting to thrive within the realities of her time, and she represents issues that still plague us in 2011.

These are the GIRLS that have spoken to my own experiences and are inspiring to me.
