Finally Out - Letting Go Of Living Straight by Loren A. Olson, M.D. and
Before We Were Trans - A New History of Gender by Kit Heyam

They are the first two books I checked out at the library after coming out, if anyone has any other good recommendations by all means.

Woodworking by Emily St James is an amazing book. It's fiction about a trans woman in her 30s finally coming out, and a trans teenager who has already been out for a while.
