Books by and About Trans People

Transgender Day of Visibility (and therefore the Trans Rights Readathon) is right around the corner, so here is a list of ~trans books~ to consider. These are all books I haven't read, but would like to.
It's always important to show solidarity, but especially in the current climate. Read a trans book and be kind to a trans person!
