Almost Perfect by Brian Katcher
Logan is a high school senior living in the very small town of Boyer, Missouri. One day, something almost unheard of occurred -- a new student arrived. Sage Hendricks wasn't exactly the hottest girl around, but she was unique, pretty, and being new to town, she definitely stood out. Although Logan had just suffered a pretty brutal breakup with his girlfriend of three years, Brenda, he finds himself attracted to Sage. Little did he know Sage had a very huge secret... she was biologically male.
This was a very refreshing novel. I can't pinpoint any recent YA books that deal so heavily with the topic of transgendered individuals, and it is very eye-opening. Sage's experiences are extremely realistic and at times heartbreaking. This is definitely a must-read :)
