#book reader

good morning, my wonderful bookish bats. Transgender Awareness Week is observed November 13 - 19, but we shouldn't leave it as a one-week celebration. instead, we should read queer ALL year. take action. spark awareness. listen to stories and experiences from the transgender community and their allies. advocate the issues of violence, discrimination, and prejudice. you can educate yourself by exploring resources from GLAAD or learning from your amazing transgender community on Booksta. otherwise, here are a few books featuring trans characters or written by trans authors to add to your tbr. 🩷🩵🤍

tomorrow is also the Transgender Day of Remembrance, when we remember and honor the lives of trans members of our community. to acknowledge those taken from us too soon, you can explore The Trans Remembrance Project or Trans Lives Matter - TDoR Reports. thank you to @queerliblib for directing to me to these resources. you can find more trans books for trans awareness week through their Trans Stories list on Libby.

I recently read Volatile Memory and had the joy of reading A Gentleman's Gentleman earlier this year. if a story you love is missing from this list of trans books, let me know! help me grow my queer bookshelf!❗
