Both books are about acceptance about oneself and others around us.

Though I wanna be your girl focuses more about the gender identities (they also have a good amount of LGBTQ+ rep) while Mom, I'm Gay focuses more on the romantic/ sexual attractions. 

I Think Our Son Is Gay

I Think Our Son Is Gay

Despite belonging to a family of four, the Aoyama residence is typically home to three due to father Akiyoshi's job. While he's away at work, mom Tomoko and her two beloved sons Hiroki and Yuri go about their everyday lives—going to school, making dinner, doing homework, etc. But now that Hiroki's in his first year of high school, his thoughts are turning ever so slightly to sex and romance...and his mom can't help but notice his slips of the tongue when he's talking about who he likes. Supportive Tomoko has an inkling Hiroki might be gay, but she's going to let him figure it out for himself. Unfortunately, Hiroki has little talent for keeping his "secret," so he might die of embarassment before all is said and done!

Her only hope of escape from the emptiness and distance is packing a bag for her ultimate trip, but much like the bag of items she repacks each day and shoves back under her desk, Joy is stuck, unable to find a purpose. Running into her high school crush, Aerie, and reaching a breaking point with her family and work, Joy's long-overdue goals of leaving home are placed into action. Speaking out against her abusers, and taking things into her own hands, Joy begins to find some independence and separation. Will Joy be able to find her way in the world, and resolve the long overdue issues that have haunted her ordinary life?
