Overview

For those who, like me, discovered laura_sackton's 100 Books by Trans & Nonbinary Authors too late to be successful within the original two-year time frame...

This untimed challenge is intended to be a preface to katnortonwriter's 100 More Trans & Nonbinary Books challenge (which is also untimed).

From katnortonwriter's challenge description:

Trans, nonbinary, genderqueer, genderfluid, two-spirit, intersex, and all other forms of genderspiciness count!

In the spirit of respecting author privacy, I'm open to including trans+ stories by folx who aren't (openly) trans, since we don't need to be pestering authors to out themselves. Ideally, though, these books will be Own Voices works, and I hope we'll all keep intersectionality in mind. 

Additionally, books don't need to be explicitly about being trans and/or revolve around a trans person/character to be included in this challenge; so long as the author fits the challenge as outlined in the above-quoted description, please feel free to add the book to this challenge!
