Dreadnought by April Daniels
4.0

Everyone should read this book! It effectively told the story of a trans girl struggling against her family's expectations of her AS WELL AS badass superheroes!!! Danny shares the same name as my sister (Danielle) and shows a very strong character development: as she must face the villains that threaten New Port City, she becomes more confident and willing to stand up to her parents, and other transphobic superheroes/friends. Definitely read this book; it's not too often that you get a narrative told from a trans MC that isn't a memoir (and don't get me wrong, memoirs are great, but it's nice to see representation in fiction as well)!
