I’m 70% finished the first in the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov and so far there is not a single named character who is not a cis male. I’ll likely read the entire series since I already own copies and curious about the science fiction ideas, but boy it is a jarring experience. @bookstodon #books #scienceficion #currentlyReading

Some years ago I read Little Women by Louisa May Alcott and there was not a single named female character that was not cis. 😉

@mc @sawauthor @bookstodon If you want an updated modern day retelling of Little Women, Ann Napolitano has written one: HELLO BEAUTIFUL is written to be more inclusive, though the narrative could have gone farther. The book release is March 14th.

@mc snarky with poor reading comprehension, what a combo
