Return to the beloved world of Julie Murphy's #1 New York Times bestselling Dumplin'--now a popular Netflix feature film starring Jennifer Aniston--in this fabulously joyful, final companion novel about drag, prom, and embracing your inner Queen.
Waylon Russell Brewer is a fat, openly gay boy stuck in the small West Texas town of Clover City. His plan is to bide his time until he can graduate, move to Austin with his twin sister, Clementine, and finally go Full Waylon so that he can live his Julie-the-hills-are-alive-with-the-sound-of-music-Andrews truth.
So when Clementine deviates from their master plan right after Waylon gets dumped, he throws caution to the wind and creates an audition tape for his favorite TV drag show, Fiercest of Them All. What he doesn't count on is the tape getting accidentally shared with the entire school. . . . As a result, Waylon is nominated for prom queen as a joke. Clem's girlfriend, Hannah Perez, also receives a joke nomination for prom king.
Waylon and Hannah decide there's only one thing to do: run--and leave high school with a bang. A very glittery bang. Along the way, Waylon discovers that there is a lot more to running for prom court than campaign posters and plastic crowns, especially when he has to spend so much time with the very cute and infuriating prom king nominee Tucker Watson.
Waylon will need to learn that the best plan for tomorrow is living for today . . . especially with the help of some fellow queens. . . .
But can Waylon turn a school-wide joke into a triumphant, glittering victory?
- Enemies to Lovers: Waylon didn't ask to be paired with the infuriatingly cute prom king nominee Tucker Watson. Now, close quarters and campaign posters are testing more than just their patience.
- A Joyful Drag Story: When a secret audition tape for his favorite drag show goes viral, Waylon decides to stop hiding and start embracing his inner Pumpkin Patch.
- Body Positivity: A powerful and funny story about a fat, openly gay teen who refuses to be anyone's punchline and is ready to claim his crown.
- Small Town Romance: Set in the beloved world of Dumplin', this novel returns to Clover City, where high school politics are a whole new kind of pageant.
