update: the library director was in today and showed me his secret space opera hoard. new additions to the list:
* August Kitko and the Mechas from Space, Alex White
* You Sexy Thing, Cat Rambo
(haven’t read yet, but he highly recommends)
he also had two of the books i’d been wanting to include in the display!
* The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet, Becky Chambers
* Ninefox Gambit, Yoon Ha Lee
btw if you thought this was a list of only 20 or so books, i failed to mention that almost every one is the first in a series. you’ve got 100+ books here
