Description

Publishers Weekly Best of the Year

Queer Love. Something Dawn wants, desperately, but does not have. But maybe, if she can capture it, film it, interview the people who have it, queer love will be hers someday. Or, at least, she'll have made a documentary about it. A documentary that, hopefully, will win Dawn a scholarship to film school. Many obstacles stand in the way of completing her film, but her best friends Edie and Georgia are there to help her reach her goal, no matter what it show more takes.
A touching and joyous story of queer friendship and girlhood set in the vibrant city of Houston, THE QUEER GIRL IS GOING TO BE OKAY will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you believe that eventually, everything will be okay.

This book is a ray of hope in a world where it feels like hope is rapidly fading. There are a lot of things covered in this book, many those in the queer community are all too familiar with. The characters feel real and relatable, and I thought Walls did a great job of brining them and their lives to life. Although everyone's experience is different, this would be a great book to help queer teens feel a little less alone, and others to understand a little of what they might face. Definitely recommend!
