I've been reading some good trans books lately, and I thought I should share some of them with you.
George by Alex Gino: This book is about Melissa, a trans girl in 4th grade. One quirk about this book is that it essentially deadnames the main character in the title (later, the author said that they regret that.) However, it's a good read, and it captures trans dysphoria and euphoria.
Gracefully Grayson by Ami Polonsky: This book is about Grayson, also a trans girl. This book is an essential read. It is a thoughtfully written book, and told from Grayson's point of view. The storyline, however, is quite comparable to George's.
The Pants Project by Cat Clarke: This book is about Liv, a trans boy with lesbian parents who is forced to wear skirts to school. It has awesome representation, and is one of my personal favorites.
Have pride!
I will DEFINATELY try these!
@ThespianLesbian Okay, I will!
I've read all of these, they all are amazing books! another good one you should check out is Lily and Dunkin!
@Meiransd Yeah! Gracefully Grayson is also really good. I recommend reading it.
I’ve read both George and The Pants Project. They are both very good!
