The Unintentional Time Traveler - A Gender Non-Conforming, Non-Binary, Trans Teen Adventure

The Unintentional Time Traveler by Everett Maroon

Fifteen-year-old Jack Bishop has mad skills with cars and engines, but knows he’ll never get a driver’s license because of his epilepsy. Agreeing to participate in an experimental clinical trial to find new treatments for his disease, he finds himself in a completely different body—that of a girl his age, Jacqueline, who defies the expectations of her era. Since his seizures usually give him spazzed out visions, Jack presumes this is a hallucination. Feeling fearless, he steals a horse, expecting that at any moment he’ll wake back up in the clinical trial lab. When that doesn't happen, Jacqueline falls unexpectedly in love, even as the town in the past becomes swallowed in a fight for its survival. Jack/Jacqueline is caught between two lives and epochs, and must find a way to save everyone around him as well as himself. And all the while, he is losing time, even if he is getting out of algebra class.

Bumbling Into Body Hair: A Transsexual's Memoir

Bumbling Into Body Hair: A Transsexual's Memoir by Everett Maroon

A comical memoir about a klutz’s sex change, Bumbling into Body Hair shows how a sense of humor – and true love – can triumph over hair disasters, resurrected breasts, and even the most crippling self-doubt. The memoir follows the complex process Jenifer Maroon undertook to become Everett -- including coming to terms with his identity, telling family and friends, and going through transition both physically and legally. Everett tells his story with brave honesty, emphasizing the importance of not letting others dictate who you are -- and laughing at yourself along the way.
