List of the Week: Genderqueer and Transgender YA Leads

By on Fandom, List of the Week

We need diverse books – but while we call for more, we should support the ones we have. Here are ten books with genderqueer and transgender YA leads.

For more: I Am J, Parrotfish, Almost Perfect, Beautiful Music for Ugly Children, Being Emily, Brooklyn Burning, Some Assembly Required, Rethinking Normal and Happy Families.

[EDIT] While we do our best to research every book to see if people of that group approve it, Luna slipped into the group with the original list. A few of our friends have gently let us know that what our research didn’t reveal was how problematic a lot of people find it. It’s been removed and replaced with Lizard Radio, a book highly anticipated by the team over at The Gay YA.

    Witch Eyes is an amazing urban fantasy/paranormal YA series featuring LGBTQ characters (including the main character!) One of my favorite series.

    Gracefully Grayson is a terrific middle-grade novel about the titular main character’s struggle to express her identity in the face of opposition from some classmates and adults, but with the support of others.
