Try Ancillary Justice. One of it’s quirks is that the main narrator uses a language that has no gendered pronouns, so in the book any person defaults to “She”. Throw in the fact that the narrator (AI) is gender-blind and you get entire sections of book where you imagine one character to look and act like one thing, only to have another character reveal that person’s true sex. It’s refreshing since by that point it doesn’t really matter, and it scrubs away any preconceived notions of how they should act or behave or what relationships are appropriate.
