You Weren't Meant to Be Human by Andrew Joseph White
Festering masses of worms and flies have taken root in dark corners across Appalachia. In exchange for unwavering loyalty and fresh corpses, these hives offer a few struggling humans salvation. A fresh start. It's an offer that none refuse. Crane is grateful. Among his hive's followers, Crane has found a chance to transition, to never speak again, to live a life that won't destroy him. He even met Levi: a handsome ex-Marine and brutal killer who treats him like a real man, mostly. But when Levi gets Crane pregnant-and the hive demands the child's birth, no matter the cost-Crane's desperation to make it stop will drive the community that saved him into a devastating spiral that can only end in blood.Praise for the author:
"A long, sustained scream to the various strains of anti-transgender legislation multiplying around the world like, well, a virus"-The New York Times
"A defining voice of our generation."-H.E. Edgmon, author of Godly Heathens and Merciless Saviors
"White wields prose like a scalpel, cutting deep and spilling guts with gruesome precision... Visceral and vindicating."-Kirkus Reviews
Andrew Joseph White is a queer, trans, New York Times bestselling author from Virginia, where he grew up falling in love with monsters and wishing he could be one too. Though he is happy with the results of hormone replacement therapy, he still considers a worm-riddled infestation corpse to be "transition goals," so it's probably for the best that he hasn't stumbled across a hive yet.
