The Spirit Bares Its Teeth by Andrew Joseph White
5.0
My favorite book by the author so far. I love that Andrew writes transmasc characters who cannot transition, who are not seen as boys at all by society, but those who matter still see them as they are. Silas is in a pretty shitty situation, since he's both trans and autistic in a Victorian society. Women are treated badly enough, but poor guy isn't even one. Also, there's magic and ghosts.
This is, of course, a horror book, and it had horrifying crimes and sexual assault and gore as the others, but it's brilliantly written and engaging. Silas also gets a T4T relationship with a trans girl and I love that for him.
