If you're reading up on the French revolution, you should definitely check out Lucy Moore's Liberty: the Lives and Times of Six Women in Revolutionary France as soon as it hits the bookshelves in the States (in May, I think) - I just read it and it was full of wonderful social history and also just bizarre trivia points that would make great background no matter what the gender of your characters...and also it's just lots of fun to read, which is a definite bonus.
