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.
Fans of Puddin’ (2018) and Dumplin’ (2015) can rejoice, as they’re off to visit Clover City, Texas, once again. In this instalment, they’ll be introduced to Waylon “Pumpkin” Brewer, so nicknamed for his bright orange hair and freckles. Life can be difficult for a fat, flamboyant, gay teen, but it becomes even more difficult when Waylon’s mostly-not-serious video entry for a drag queen reality competition is accidentally shared widely on social media instead of being posted only for members of the school’s queer club to see. Before it’s taken down, it garners some support—and some attacks. Although senior Waylon has the support of his family, including his twin sister, Clem, and her girlfriend, Hannah, he has to deal with more homophobia at school when he’s nominated, as homecoming queen. Inspired by Hannah and her acceptance of the nomination for homecoming
"The novel is full of inspiration, fabulousness, and romance, and readers will be enthralled as they race to learn what happens to Waylon and his friends. There is a nuanced discussion to be had in the fitness subplot sparked by Waylon and his formerly heavy frenemy, Kyle, who is insensitive about sharing his weight-loss journey. Most main characters are White; Hannah is Afro-Dominican.
Enticing as homemade pumpkin pie. Bon appétit! " - Kirkus Reviews
