Oddly Normal by John Schwartz The book is memoir written by a dad who's son is struggling with coming out. The son, Joe, also goes through some conflicts with his education, being diagnosed with various conditions on the Autism spectrum, and such. The book does have some emotional moments, like Joe's attempted suicide. Overall it is very much nonfiction. ---------- Post added 22nd Apr 2017 at 01:02 PM ---------- BTW, although I found this book interesting, this book is more pointed towards parents of LGBT children, so yea.
Do yourself a favor and read the Little Boy Lost series by JP Barnaby. It's a little bit over-dramatic at times but a sweet story with likable characters. It's very hot at times, too.
Others that I've read and enjoyed: Tales from Foster High series by John Goode Something Like series by Jay Bell Just Between Us by JH Trumble Don't Let Me Go by JH Trumble Superhero by Eli Easton After School Activities by Dirk Hunter Rainbow Road trilogy by Alex Sanchez Out of the Pocket by Bill Konigsberg What They Always Tell Us by Martin Wilson Social Skills by Sara Alva The Decisions We Make by RJ Scott Safe by C Kennedy Things I'll Never Say by MJ O'Shea Unintended by MJ O'Shea Wanting by Piper Vaughn (only first book in series is available though)
The only LGBT themed book I've read that you haven't is Tell Me Again How A Crush Should Feel by Sara Farizan. It's pretty good. It's about a Persian lesbian teenager going to a fancy private school in Boston, and dealing with relationships and the like.
I love Alex As Well by Alyssa Brugman...it's about an intersex girl who was raised as male, identifies as female and is also a lesbian so it's definitely an LGBT book XD Also More Than This, Release and/or The Rest Of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness (all gay male characters)...None Of The Above by I.W. Gregorio is incredible (intersex main character). If you don't mind manga or graphic novels then read Hourou Musuko by Takako Shimura (transgender characters - MTF and FTM) and SuperMutant Magic Academy by Jillian Tamaki (lesbian main character) for sure. I have yet to read them but Peter Darling by Austin Chant, The Miseducation Of Cameron Post by Emily M. Danforth, Gracefully Grayson by Ami Polonsky, Beauty Queens by Libba Bray, Lily And Dunkin by Donna Gephart and The Symptoms Of Being Human by Jeff Garvin all feature LGBT characters
