I have never read one. (Cishet male)
Most of Octavia Butler’s books have a female protagonist. She did sci-fi and afrofuturism.
There are several by Ursula K Leguin if you like the genres. I think they’re all in the middle of series, though, with the earlier books centering male characters.
Unhinged: Girl Flesh by May Leitz.
Hinged: Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers
Esoteric: This Is How You Lose The Time War by Maxwell Gladstone & Amal El-Mohtar
Spooky: Our Wives Under The Sea by Julia Armfield
Arty: The Drowning Girl by Caitlin R Kiernan
Sheesh, imagine reading books written by men more like “meh”, fuckin gottem
I fucking love This is How You Lose the Time War
The prose is beautiful and there are some parts of the book that felt like they were written for me
If you want to read it I’d only recommend reading it and not listening via audio book. I recommended it to a friend that tried that and the formatting isn’t the best for audio
Yeah it’s great, I feel like that Sapphic fatalism is missing from too many romances honestly.
I skipped the audiobook myself, shame it’s not great…
It might be okay if you’ve already read the book but it kinda makes sense the letters format isn’t the best as audio :/
Dear you’ve barely read any books written by men in all the time I’ve known you
What about an enby protagonist?
I’ll never stop singing the praises of the Monk and Robot books by Becky Chambers.
