Another mystery, suspense, thriller. Sounds like a good one.

Ms. Boylan has another from 2015, I'll Give You Something to Cry About, which sounds really good, too. Sweet, comic, and exuberant, the novella tells the story of a transgendered adolescent as she comes to terms with her family, world, and sexuality.

Then there's Jenny's memoir, She's Not There, published in 2003. One of the first bestselling works by a transgendered American; until 2001 she published under the name James Boylan. I definitely want to read that.
