So, basically everything! :D Fun! Here's a list of equally varied sci-fi books in return.

- The Archive Undying - Emma Mieko Candon (mecha sci-fi, male protag)
- The Genesis of Misery - Neon Yang (mecha sci-fi, nonbinary protag)
- Murderbot Diaries (series; All Systems Red is bk1) - Martha Wells (action/social sci-fi?, agender protag)
- Foreigner (start of series) - C. J. Cherryh (social sci-fi epic, male protag)
- An Unkindness of Ghosts - Rivers Solomon (dystopic generation ship; protag has a complicated relationship with gender)
- Gamechanger - L. X. Beckett (near-future sci-fi, multiple protags [female, nonbinary, male/AI])
- Vorkosigan Saga - Lois McMaster Bujold (mostly male protagonists)
- The Prey of Gods - Nicky Drayden (near-future sci-fi, multiple protagonists of varied genders)
- The Luminous Dead - Caitlin Starling (horror sci-fi, female protag)
- The Quantum Thief - Hannu Rajaniemi (space opera + heists, male protag)
+bonus rec for a book I haven't read but keep hearing about (and I like the author):
Children of Time - Adrian Tchaikovsky (it has space spiders?)
