This book will be enjoyable for both diehards and newbies to drag. It’s full of fun, sass, and heart. Hang on to your wig

because it will be snatched!
A hilarious, exhilarating, touching debut novel, filled with failure, self-discovery, resilience and glitter.Guardian
I enjoyed being a part of Robin's world, watching him hope, and fail, and recalibrate, just as we all have to do. It’s about picking yourself up, dusting yourself off and getting over knockbacks – the hard lessons awaiting everyone as they reach adulthood. There’s a message here about not only being true to yourself, but being there for others and lifting them up – everyone needs a shot at centre-stage. BOY QUEEN has drama, charm, and warmth, and George Lester has created a cast of characters you’ll miss as soon as it’s over.Justin Myers, The Guyliner
