I got my heart inside a loom
I start my week again with no sleep. I am having a lot of trouble just existing right now.
Internet hivemind, does anyone have books to recommend for a fourteen-year-old who has just come out as bi and is looking for congenial literature? She reads science fiction and mainstream fiction but not really fantasy, so naturally most of the examples coming to my mind of bisexual main characters or societies where bisexuality is normative are in the wrong genre. I am planning to suggest Ursula K. Le Guin and Phyllis Gotlieb [edit: and Yoon Ha Lee!] and I have no idea what middle-grade/YA looks like these days.

Thank you! This is a lot of books I mostly don't know about! (I forgot about Santa Olivia. I loved that book!)
Plus the sequel, "The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy", is due out this October, with a teen female main character who I think probably is asexual, from her appearance in the first book, but who has queer female best friends.
That sounds great.
