Felix Ever After has got to be one of my new fave books!! i love the writing style, plot and characters. i cant recommend it enough. However their are some quite upsetting themes and issues discussed and raised but their handled in a very tasteful yet realistic manner.


message 18: by Desiree (new)

Desiree (witnesstomurder) On A Sunbeam is a great wlw graphic novel for those who are interested in that format!! and Crier's War is an awesome wlw book (a duology, actually).

Cemetery Boys has mlm AND trans rep, definitely recommend that one to everyone :)

Lily (bofu) I just finished reading Black Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse and omg, it’s incredible. Awesome trans/non-binary/bisexual representation! Even apart from having LGBTQ+ characters, this book is just top notch epic fantasy. Highly recommend.
