We love the intersex representation!! 

Once again, I love the Wayward Children series. If you're looking for a slightly more grown-up (but not explicit or anything) series of fairytales, Seanan McGuire's short books will enchant you. If you were a unicorn or horse kid, you'll really enjoy this one. It felt more straightforward than the others and not much really happens, but in an enjoyable light-read way.

If you're going to pick up this series, I recommend starting with Every Heart a Doorway and then proceeding to whatever book you like, no order necessary!
