Coming to tumblr because god knows where else I can ask for book recs this specific and expect answers.
Does anyone have any recommendations for urban fantasy books with transfemme protagonists who arent out or just came out at the start of the story?
Actually, I guess it doesnt have to be urban fantasy. I just want some form of scifi/fantasy thats similar-ish to real life in terms of dealing with social pressures and consequences of transitioning. The Gods Are Bastards had an amazing arc with this, transition alchemy and priestess TERFS included. Currently working my way through the Dreadnought series and this is Perfect.
Also, Im gonna @bookcub & @logarithmicpanda because what are mutuals for if not ridiculous things like this
So the Nemesis series was incredible, highly recommend it. Burke Misadventures was also very fun, even if its also somewhat copaganda. Book 1 was all around incredible and i binged it Very fast, and the 2nd one was also pretty good. I couldnt get into Light from Uncommon Stars, it was a bit too bizarre for me.
Homestly i think what im really looking for doesnt exist 😂. I loved Nemesis and Burke Misadventures, but they were very ... plot heavy. I need someone to write books for the extremely specific genre that only exists in my head (transfemme saphic romance with a full fantasy/scifi plot definitely happening, but like, in the background/between shit, while the transition and a bit of the romance are in the foreground)
I have become desperate. Am now askimg for suggestions for any non-contemporary fiction (so fantasy, urban fantasy, scifi, dystopia, etc.) books, graphic novels, podcasts, visual novels, and web serials which at least somewhat focus on any transfemme or wlw character at any point in the process between “Im cishet” and “I know exactly what my identity is, Im comfortable with it and am living with that identity openly in not-negative conditions, and the people in my life are stabilized in terms of their reactions to it”.
