Man o' War (2022)
Cory McCarthy
"River is the most emotionally engaging character I've read in a long time, and this novel is a deep and comprehensive exploration of the journey transgender people trek through the confining world they're born into. Eye-opening, heartfelt, and real - with a massive payoff of true love."

Aftercare Instructions (2017)
Bonnie Pipkin
