However a bunch of them aren't fantasy or sf respectively, and an overlapping bunch aren't unreliable narrators, and of course large numbers have male protagonists. It might be worth it as a source of inspiration maybe?
It did remind me that in Megan Whalen Turner's Attolia series, the Queen of Attolia gets to take her turn as a point-of-view character. She's not as unreliable as Gen but it's something.
It also brings up "The Yellow Wallpaper". Not a book though.
