I quite enjoyed Thirteen Storeys! It's not a novel in the traditional sense though, it's more a collection of short stories that all come together for the climax.
And of course my mind goes blank! But the things that are randomly occurring to me:
I will always have a soft spot for the webcomic Venus Envy by Erin Lindsey, as one of the first pieces of decent trans media I ever encountered.
Oh Human Star by Blue Delliquanti. Scifi comic about a roboticist who is revived after death as a robot and has to deal with how the world has changed.
One Night Hot Springs by npckc is a really lovely story about a trans woman visiting a hot springs with some friends. They have a bunch of other cute games and useful Renpy resources.
Can You Say My Name Again by Nadianova is a great little story about two trans women. She has a bunch of other cute games about trans lesbians.
Chaos Life Funny slice of life autobiographical comics by a A. Stiffler and K. Copeland, including a bunch about being non-binary.
eldenadoubleca5t does funny videos about shipping and informative videos about fannish history.
The trans representation in the Dragon Age series has been, uh, flawed, but Patrick Weekes seems pretty cool and I look forward to seeing what they do as lead writer.
EDIT: And of course I can't forget the wonderful ravenari/ piafoxhall, creator of amazing art and books, and one of my most favourite people in general :)
I love Dragon Age, but it has been hit and miss. Patrick is at least trying to be good with trans narratives, but video games writers tend to be fixated on having their big reveal moments.
I hadn't heard of all those other things. There is a lot of trans content I haven't even heard of.
