Staff Pick
This is an absolutely delightful autobiographical manga about a trans girl in modern Japan, centered around her relationship and eventual marriage to her husband. Their interactions are adorable (as are the illustrations that depict them), and tells a story about acceptance and happiness rather than one of suffering. Truly, it's too sweet to miss.

Review
"Equal parts Trans 101 and tear-jerking rom-com, there’s no other manga quite like this fun (and revolutionary) book." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
