A landmark comedic novel about a group of queer teens
at their worst - and ultimately their best - from one of the UK's
leading writers of LGBTQ+ teen fiction.
Barney's a shoo-in for his school's LGBTQ+ Society President
at the club's next election. But when the vote is
opened up to the entire student body, the whole school starts paying
attention. How low will the candidates go to
win? Buckle up for some serious shade, scandals and sleazy
shenanigans. It isn't long before it's National Coming
Out Day - for everyone's secrets!
But when the group faces an unexpected threat - and a big opportunity
- can the club members put politics aside and stand
united?
Simon James Green is the award-winning author of a number of
beloved LGBTQ+ YA novels, including Noah Can't Even, Heartbreak
Boys and You're the One That I Want.
Perfect for fans of Glee, Heartstopper, and
Boyfriend Material.
