This one looks like a boy : my gender journey to life as a man / by Shenher, Lorimer,author.;
"In this candid and thoughtful memoir, Shenher shares the story of his gender journey, from childhood gender dysphoria to teenage sexual experimentation to early-adult denial of his identity--and finally the acceptance that he is trans, culminating in gender confirmation surgery in his fifties. Along the way, he details his childhood in booming Calgary, his struggles with alcohol, and his eventual move to Vancouver, where he became the first detective assigned to the case of serial killer Robert Pickton (the subject of his critically acclaimed book That Lonely Section of Hell). With warmth and openness, This One Looks Like A Boy takes us through one of the most important decisions Shenher will ever make, as he comes into his own and finally discovers acceptance and relief."--Dust jacket flap.

A lady for a duke / by Hall, Alexis J.,author.;
"When Viola Caroll was presumed dead at Waterloo she took the opportunity to live, at last, as herself. But freedom does not come without a price, and Viola paid for hers with the loss of her wealth, her title, and her closest companion, Justin de Vere, the Duke of Gracewood. Only when their families reconnect, years after the war, does Viola learn how deep that loss truly was. Shattered without her, Gracewood has retreated so far into grief that Viola barely recognises her old friend in the lonely, brooding man he has become. As Viola strives to bring Gracewood back to himself, fresh desires give new names to old feelings. Feelings that would have been impossible once and may be impossible still, but which Viola cannot deny. Even if they cost her everything, all over again"--

Paper doll : notes from a late bloomer / by Mulvaney, Dylan,author.;
"When Dylan Mulvaney came out as a woman in a TikTok on March 12th, 2022, she became a viral sensation almost overnight, thanks to both her candor and her joy. Emerging as a trailblazing voice on social media, Dylan's personal coming-out story blossomed into a platform for advocacy and empowerment for trans people all over the world. With her Days of Girlhood series, she connected with followers by exploring what it means to be a girl, from experimenting with makeup to story times to spilling the tea about laser hair removal; but Dylan also did not shy away from her truth about the transphobia she faced online. Nevertheless, she was determined to be a beacon of positivity. But shortly after celebrating day 365 of being a girl, it all came crashing down when an innocuous brand deal which sparked a media firestorm and right-wing backlash she was wholly unprepared for. Dylan was forced to reckon with how safe it would be to continue doing what she loves regardless of the vitriolic press and relentless paparazzi. Despite the hardships, she's loud, proud, and ready to share her truth. In her memoir, Paper Doll, Dylan pulls back the curtain of her "it girl" lifestyle with an honest, witty, and intimate reflection of her life post-transitioning. She covers everything from her first big break in theater to the first time her dad recognized her as a girl to how she handled scandals, cancellations, and tucking. Dylan's humor and honesty is woven throughout this colorful memoir, uncovering a life beyond the 365 days that will delight her fans and create new ones alike"--

Chef's choice : a novel / by Alexander, T. J.,author.;
When Luna O'Shea is unceremoniously fired from her frustrating office job, she tries to count her blessings: she's a proud trans woman who has plenty of friends, a wonderful roommate, and a good life in New York City. But blessings don't pay the bills. Enter Jean-Pierre, a laissez-faire trans man and the heir to a huge culinary empire -- which he'll only inherit if he can jump through all the hoops his celebrity chef grandfather has placed in his path. First hoop: he needs a girlfriend, a role that Luna is happy to play ... for the right price. She's got rent to pay, after all! Second hoop: they both need to learn how to cook a series of elaborate, world-renowned family recipes to prove that Jean-Pierre is a worthy heir. Admittedly, Luna doesn't even know how to crack an egg, but she's not going to let that-or any pesky feelings for Jean-Pierre-stop her.
