The Last Boyfriends Rules for Revenge
The Last Boyfriends Rules for Revenge | Matthew Hubbard
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
A queer coming-of-age about three teenage boys in small town Alabama who set out to get revenge on their ex-boyfriends and end up starting a student rebellion. Perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli and Jason June! Ezra Hayes has always felt like a background character compared to BFFs Lucas and Finley. He would do anything to be seen as a romantic lead, even if it means keeping his boyfriend, Presley, a secret. But when he discovers that Presley is a lying cheater, and his best friends are having boy problems of their own, they want revenge. Their plans to get even involve sabotaging the largest party of the year, entering a drag competition, and even having Ezra run against his ex for Winter Formal King. Then the school district starts to actively censor queer voices with their Watch What You Say initiative. Taking to TikTok to vent frustrations, Ezra begins The Last Boyfriends Student Rebellion. Between ex-boyfriend drama and navigating viral TikTok fame, Ezra realizes this rebellion is about something more important than revenge. Its a battle cry to fight back against outdated opinions and redefine what it means to be queer in small town Alabama.

This is a bittersweet look at a group of teen boys in high school who battle against the school‘s new motto, “Watch What You Say.” Intended to engage, instead it enrages the group of gay young men who want the world to know them. It‘s often funny but also heartbreaking as it delves into the criticism they face trying to be themselves and fit in as well!

Reggie This sounds fantastic and timely. Stacked! 2mo
