Smithy Recognized for Strong Female Characters

Inkshares's "Break the Bechdel" Syndicate, which recognizes strong female characters in fiction, has chosen Smithy as its December book of the month:

In order to pass, the work (e.g., movie, book, TV show, etc.) must have 1) at least two female characters; 2) they must have at least one conversation with each other; and 3) the conversation must be about something other than a man.
