Recs if you like I, Robot...

One of several Non-Humans & Empathy -themed lists by @Myth.Ink (See also: Non-Fiction, GNs/Manga+, Youth Titles, Creature Feature, & the Official @Myth.Ink Curation) | This list is the FICTION edition, including fictional interactions and considerations of interactions between plausibly realistic non-human beings of all types (trees, robots, animals, ai, aliens, objects, science-experiment beings, etc) and humans, empathy and lack thereof. | Suggestions more than welcome!

Based on the list/book published in 2006, general editor Peter Boxall.

books featured in the cozy video game “tiny bookshop”

Scifi/Fantasy/Speculative fiction featuring women in STEM* careers (*the M can stand for magic if the worldbuilding presents magic like a STEM field)

All fiction books that appear in the Tiny Bookshop catalogue! Would sort them by genre as I read along.

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

This is for the classics, the old and new, the lesser known books, the short stories and the translated speculative fiction. Sci-fi could be argued to be one of the best and most expansive genres out there - it’s just a matter of finding the right book for you.

If there is a series, I will only be putting the first book unless they are unrelated.

Books shown or referenced in the tv show Buffy The Vampire Slayer - not including thematic references only direct references or books shown on screen.

A collection of books that impacted the future of their own genre. ✨️please make recommendations✨️ (Picking emojis for this was hard)

Like it says on the tin. Good books with sentient robots/androids/AIs.

These short story anthology collections are sci-fi fantasy focused. Some stories in the collection may take a darker edge and lean grimdark or horror.

Feel free to add recommendations!

these are just ones i’ve read and can confirm are good/recommendations from others some of these have sequels!

(almost) every book in the game: tiny bookshop

sci-fi which has had an immeasurable impact on the genre or on the world (or the sci-fi i would include in my college course syllabus).

Keeping up with the 700+ books featured on Overdue since 2013

Books you didn't realize were written by Jewish authors. Bonus points if you studied them in school and it just... never came up.

For fans of Criminal Minds! This is a list of books mentioned/read by Dr. Spencer Reid.

I love any and all sentient machines and you will too.
