  12. This is good: funny, involving, illuminating, full-on. It could do with being a hundred pages shorter, but the sprawl has its reasons

  27. So, I was expecting to feel some emotions when i picked up a collection of comics by Julie Kaye called “Super Late Bloomer: My Early Days in Transition”.

    Was not expecting the ones I got when I read this in the intro:
    “Yet another year passed, and I found myself back in the same place all over again. As much as I might have wanted them to, these thoughts & feelings weren’t going away & needed addressing. At twenty-six years old…”

    Your book is called Super Late Bloomer, and you started at 26?!?!?! So what’s the term for me, starting at 45? Fossilized in Amber? 😅

    (It was a good book. Definitely got the emotions I expected from revisiting those first months of transition with this)

  28. Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki

    Don't read this book if hungry. This author writes about food in the way that Tolkien writes about trees: with exquisite and infuriating detail.

    A queen of hell, a demon, a family of aliens, a homeless violinist, a doughnut store, video game music... it's so hard to tie this story down into a single review.

    Just go with it. It'll be worth it.

  34. The Hand, the Eye & the Heart, by Zoë Marriott

    From what I gather, this was a retelling of the American version of the story of Mulan.

    I enjoyed it, but I'm still a bit confused about its plot. Was it meant to be family-focused? Or a coming of age tale? A war story? Or a political drama? Or was it always meant to be a love triangle romance? I don't know, so at the end I felt like a lot was still unresolved.

  35. Sasha Masha, by Agnes Borinsky

    This is a short novel about the protagonist's 'trans realisation' moment (that messy time when a trans person is realising they are trans, but not necessarily coming out to anyone about it). It's one of the first times I've read a story about this type of trans experience - most trans protagonists are either coming out or already out - so it was a nice change of pace.

  36. Most Ardently, by Gabe Cole Novoa

    I can't deny that the book reads like fanfiction, but it was great fun nonetheless. It's exactly what it says on the tin: a trans and gay retelling of Pride & Prejudice.

    The pedant in me objected to some of the structural story changes (e.g., everyone was aged down). I was also bothered by some of the historical inaccuracies. But it's fiction, so best just enjoy the ride.

  37. Between Prefect & Real, by Ray Stoeve

    Strangely, I didn’t write any review notes after finishing this book, which is my usual practice. I just gave it four stars and that was that. Maybe I was tired? Maybe I didn't have the words yet for my thoughts? Who knows!

  38. Stay Gold, by Tobly McSmith

    I liked this book. There were a few struggles (e.g., why did the protagonist use the name "Pony" if he felt so strongly about being stealth? Maybe the name reads as more cis/masc in Texas?)

    I most enjoyed the characters' relationship dynamics. They weren't always clean, but they felt real, and there was just enough supportive love to help the reader through the darker chapters.

  42. Zenobia July, by Lisa Bunker

    This was a great book. It explores lots of themes - grief, religion, queerness, gender, neurodivergence - in a pretty even-keeled story.

    It's not so much a coming out journey, or about being trans. It's about surviving school, building your self-esteem and finding support.

  43. May The Best Man Win, by Z. R. Ellor.

    This book's reviews on The Story Graph weren't too promising, but then it was marketed as a rom-com, which it is not. It’s a coming of age story about two emotionally messy teenage boys who happen to adore each other in a very chaotic way.

    I particularly liked the way this book dealt with anger. I feel like not enough queer books tackle the emotion of fury enough.

  44. I’ve been working my way through the trans-related YA books available at my local library and thought I’d share my thoughts, starting with those I enjoyed the most and ending with those I couldn’t quite take up a position on.

    Note that most (all?) of these are American, and I've never been to the States, so that may affect how I read and relate to these stories.
