Pumpkin by Julie Murphy

5.0

I really loved this book. I knew I was gonna love this as a fat queer person myself. I love all the characters. Waylon and Clem are so well written and the conflict between them is so realistic. I love that while Lucas doesn't get on with Waylon he's not villainized, we get to understand where he's coming from I like that. I love the way Hannah is written, the relationship between her and Clem is so cute. I love the depictions of drag and queerness. I of course loved the relationship between Tucker and Waylon. Tucker is so sweet and seeing his struggles is very compelling. I loved the Prism club making the wall and the Waylon and Hannah running for prom royalty is so fun. It was tense waiting to see if they won. I loved the way fatphobia was tackled, especially with Kyle. It was well handled. I loved Alex and Kyle too. It's an amazing book, I would recommend it.
