"F***ing outstanding."--Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author
“Rivera captures both the disappointments and the possibilities that
come with realizing that your life’s solution cannot be figured out
by someone else.”—The New York Times Book Review Juliet Milagros
Palante is a self-proclaimed closeted Puerto Rican baby dyke from the
Bronx. Only, she's not so closeted anymore. Not after coming out to
her family the night before flying to Portland, Oregon, to intern with
her favorite feminist writer--what's sure to be a life-changing
experience. And when Juliet's coming out crashes and burns, she's not
sure her mom will ever speak to her again. But Juliet has a plan--sort
of. Her internship with legendary author Harlowe Brisbane, the
ultimate authority on feminism, women's bodies, and other gay-sounding
stuff, is sure to help her figure out this whole "Puerto Rican
lesbian" thing. Except Harlowe's white. And not from the Bronx. And
she definitely doesn't have all the answers . . . In a summer bursting
with queer brown dance parties, a sexy fling with a motorcycling
librarian, and intense explorations of race and identity, Juliet
learns what it means to come out--to the world, to her family, to
herself.
