On that note:
Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.
Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.
Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo
Also, skill issue. Also, like...you do know that authors not only write but also buy and read books, right? Like, the two things aren't mutually exclusive?
