Freak Show by James St James
AN ALA BEST BOOK FOR YOUNG ADULTS PICK * A brave teen stands tall amidst the walls of a judgmental academy, flaunting his unique, glamorous, and unapologetic self."Gutsy, funny, over-the-top Bill Bloom is a profile in courage."--The Washington Post
"Freak Show has it all. It's hilarious, sad, sexy, and glamorous--just the way life should be."--Perez Hilton
"A groundbreaking, eve-opening, romantic, bittersweet story of one boy's determination to seek acceptance for who he is and right the wrongs of his world, one dress at a time."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
Billy--drag queen extraordinaire--is a new student at the ultrawhite, ultrarich, ultraconservative Dwight D. Eisenhower Academy. Actually, "drag queen" does not begin to describe Billy and his fabulousness. How about Glitteroid, Twinkle Queen, or Gender Obscurist? Any way you slice it, Billy is not a typical seventeen-year-old, and the Bible Belles, Aberzombies, and Football Heroes at the academy have never seen anyone quite like him before. And Billy's attempts to both stand out and fit in are not met with the desired response. But thanks to the help and support of one good friend, Billy's able to take a stand for outcasts and underdogs everywhere in his own outrageous, over-the-top, sad, funny brilliant, and unique way.
