Favorite books with trans protagonists?
As the title says, what are your favorite books with trans protagonists?
I just finished Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki and thoroughly enjoyed it. The main character is a runaway trans girl who wants to be a violinist. Without spoiling too much it’s also a sci-fi/fantasy story and has a lesbian side-romance. TW for rape and general transphobia.
What Moves The Dead by T. Kingfisher is another favorite of mine. It has a nonbinary protagonist and is a SFF horror rewrite of The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allen Poe. If you like an alt-history Victorian setting with the undead this is straight up your alley.

It’s been a while since I read it, and I don’t think I’ve read the third book in the series yet, but I remember enjoying Lila Bowen’s “Wake of Vultures” and “Conspiracy of Ravens”. It probably needs similar trigger warnings iirc.
Was the protag of that nonbinary? It’s been a few years since I read the first book and I’m struggling to remember the specifics of their gender identity, I did enjoy it though. I haven’t read the sequel book so I’ll have to check it out too!
I want to say started out more nonbinary and moved more towards masculinity, but it’s been years so I’m struggling to remember too.
