I don't think I've ever read about a beauty pageant before! But I'm all over cheering for the underdog, especially when they're queer girls.
There hasn’t been a
winner of the Miss Meteor beauty pageant who looks like Lita Perez or
Chicky Quintanilla in all its history. But that’s not the only reason
Lita wants to enter the contest, or why her ex-best friend Chicky wants
to help her. The road to becoming Miss Meteor isn’t about being perfect;
it’s about sharing who you are with the world—and loving the parts of
yourself no one else understands. So to pull off the unlikeliest
underdog story in pageant history, Lita and Chicky are going to have to
forget the past and imagine a future where girls like them are more than
enough—they are everything.
Witty and heartfelt with characters
that leap off the page, Miss Meteor is acclaimed authors Anna-Marie
McLemore and Tehlor Kay Mejia’s first book together.
