I typed this list up for a friend and thought I would share it some places where folks might be interested, of books by trans and nonbinary authors I have really enjoyed or found useful as educational resources in the last few years (Calvin is a trans joy focused picture book by two parents based on their child's social transition but everything else is by a trans or enby creator).

Caveats: there are not as many creators of color on this list as I would like; the market skews pretty heavily towards white authors in general and I am still working to read more trans creators of color. A common refrain when consuming media by marginalized groups is to be sure that you are also consuming media that centers joy experienced by these marginalized groups rather than suffering. This list is mix of both and of many different genres. Also, I didn't include content warnings here as I read some of these some time ago, so I recommend Googling or checking Storygraph for the titles that look interesting; some of them do focus on heavy topics like addiction or sexual assault.

Hii. Do u have current or favorite zine recs?

yes!!! in general my taste skews towards pop-culture based stuff and fanzines, risographed zines, and attempts to translate the digital-ephemeral to the physical realm. some stuff i've been digging lately:

liz yerby is kinda the GOAT right now to me; sir, is this love? makes me BANANAS

caro cash is an evil genius whose work is intimidatingly brilliant and spot-on...probably the biggest Young Name in zines at the moment?

sam szabo's Enlightened Transsexual Comix (now a book from Silver Sprocket!) are so funny, insane making, and made with a lack of cis legibility that's super refreshing

queer materials has totally broken open my ideas of what zines could be; dossiers of archival material that make you feel like a kid solving a mystery

julia eff's zines were the first i ever bought, and they're really the gold standard of classic, punky, angry genderful pop culture zines
