D is only reading SF that B gives her, which is to say Becky Chambers and Scalzi's Zoe's Tale (which is the one book in Old Man's War with a teenage girl as narrator). She's also read some Cory Doctorow -- Little Brother and For the Win. These tend to push her patience, but she does like them. I think all of these have some sex, but at a level that we're comfortable with. (B has been reading the Lady Astronaut books and says that the sex in those is adult enough that he's not going to push them on D, even though she would probably like other aspects of the books. If she sought them out, we'd let her read them, but we'd probably discuss them with her.) She's a militant enough feminist that she doesn't give the time of day to golden age SF. Eventually I will try to reason with her about The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, but I'll survive if she never reads The Rolling Stones or Have Spacesuit, Will Travel. I might give her Panshin's Rite of Passage at some point.
