In light of the executive order made by our uninformed new president, declaring that there are only two genders, I would like to help fellow readers become better educated. Here are six books written by and/or centering on the experiences of non-binary and transgender people. I wish I had a recommendation with some intersex representation, but I can‘t think of anything at the moment. Feel free to suggest other great books in the comments below.

AmyG Thank you. 3h
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian I use the hashtag #TransBooks when I post about books by trans authors, there are a lot of great books there. One of my favourite (trans) authors is Kai Cheng Thom. 2h

Thanks for the tag, Lisa!

1) least was marking homework and tests

2) Sam doesn't really dislike his job, but he's not a fan of it either. He's trying to support his team by faking amnesia.

TheSpineView YW! Marked in red pen!?? I remember those days. Thanks for playing 5h

Nick and Charlie embark on their relationship and it is a delight to watch the enchantment and nervousness of first love. Nick is acknowledging his feelings for Charlie and coming to understand himself better. The boys are navigating friendships and how and when to come out as a couple. It‘s such a fantastic series. So glad that it exists, especially for gay teens out there who need to see themselves in these stories.

The beginning of this year has seen me continuing my journey through small press and translated fiction. This is the story of a Norwegian girl who goes on a school semester in Australia where she ends up living in a renovated brewery with another girl. The brewery has only thin walls and the borders between the girls and sound and reality blur. While it was an interesting exploration of intimacy and loneliness it didn‘t fully work for me.

Most of my current 30ish library checkouts... Yeah that's probably about right for my reading ratio these days, my stuff to kids books. #raisingreaders
