interlibraryprone finished reading 2312 by Kim Stanley Robinson
Guessing at the start/end dates. Started strong but petered out in a way that was rather than unsatisfying. Found it on a list of books with intersex rep, and I think this is inaccurate - Swan is trans/altersex (she intentionally transitions to mixed sex characteristics). She is not intersex. Some of the other characters /might/ be intersex but it would really more accurately be varsex representation than intersex because they're not really specified as intersex, just that they have variant sex characteristics. I did appreciate reading a book where being varsex was so normalized that the cause of the sex variation (i.e. natural genetics, intentional transformation, etc) wasn't worth mentioning in the bulk of the cases.
