Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for an eARC in exchange for an honest review. 
 
As a huge fan of drag in general and Drag Race, I had SO much fun reading this! What great representation of not only queer teens, but the diversity within the LGBTQ kids in this book is awesome- some fat, some mean, some nice, some rich, some middle class. 
 
The way the author perfectly encompassed the awkwardness and cringey-ness of being a teenager and figuring all that out in a rural small town was so relatable. 
 
This book was so fun, but at the same time dealt with some tough topics such as bullying (and cyber-bullying), homophobia, suicide, and more. 
 
I can’t wait for queer kids to get their hands on this book, and to see what else the author does in the future!
