What people on Hacker News said
It wasn't until many years later that I saw how foundational to my worldview it was that my first SF book had a female protagonist.
Taught me very early on about physics, time, creativity, nonconformity, love, and the mystery and wonder of the universe.
9 year old me, there is such a thing as a tesseract, and there is also Mrs. Beast.
