The Last Boyfriends Rules for Revenge

De: Matthew Hubbard

Narrado por: Lee Osorio

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. It’s a battle cry to fight back against outdated opinions and redefine what it means to be queer in small town Alabama.

Amazing!!

Loved every word and minute of this book!! #glitterbomb
Such an important story and the main characters—Ezra, Lucas, Finley—are an amazing trio of friends! Everyone read/listen to this wonderful book!!

The representation of queer people and them not being forced to the stereotypical character.

I absolutely loved this book! It is a Gen Z rom-com with notes of very important issues that LGBTQIA+ people still face today. It's a new genre for me and I ate this book up!

An important message

I loved all of it. The characters, the importance of LGBTqIA+ rights. It centering around youth and social justice. All of it
