A review by bookdingo
Nail Polish and Feathers by Jo Ramsey

5.0

Evan Granger refuses to be anything but himself. Being a 16 year old is obnoxious enough as it is, what with the hormones, and finding a niche for yourself and maintaining friendships without being too awkward, but Evan's got plenty more to deal with. He wants to become a drag queen someday. He dons nail polish (turquoise is his favorite color), and he's experimenting with makeup. This book covers not only discrimination from authority figures and students alike, but displays the awfulness of victim blaming. Throw in a little innocent (secret) romance, and a fabulous grand gesture, and you have a memorable YA read. I loved it!
