Her Majesty’s Royal Coven trilogy by Juno Dawson

This is a brilliant fantasy series which is basically Desperate Housewives / Spice Girls but they’re British millennial witches. After a magical war, five witches try to rebuild their lives, but a prophecy threatens the world. With a trans side character who becomes more central as it goes on. What I love so much about this is how specific it is to the experience of being raised as a millennial woman in the UK. I don’t usually vibe with books with tons of pop culture references, but for me specifically, their nostalgia is my nostalgia. It’s so fun. I just finished the final book, Human Rites, and it was just as fantastic as the others.

Twice Lived by Joma West (my sibling)

This is a short sci fi novel about two teenage girls who share one body across parallel worlds, knowing that one day one of them will get the body for good, and the experiences of their mothers, their hopes, fears and confusion. People interpret books differently, but for me, this book in part spoke to the frustration of being a person living in a world that does not allow you control of your own body. The doctors who won’t listen, the friends who try but can never truly understand, the hidden dark thoughts you try to push away. It’s an emotional ride of a book, you’re truly rooting for both girls.

More Me with You by Alex Bertie

This is a short audiobook on Audible (I’m not a big fan of Audible though to be honest. I was sent this for review years ago, had to make an account, then Audible made it SO hard to cancel). I absolutely loved it. It focuses on a trans man in Bristol working in a bookshop who falls for his new coworker. It’s tender, nervous, and sweet. I loved the honestly about dating as a trans person. When do you bring it up? Will they care? Why do dating apps suck so much? Much love, take care, Disco x
