Quiz: You’re Going on a Scavenger Hunt to Find Your Next Fun Queer YA Read
From the New York Times bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue and One Last Stop comes a romantic comedy about chasing down what you want, only to find what you need...To get the girl, first you have to find her.
There are two things I want to do when the weather starts getting warmer like this. First, get outside more and enjoy the nice weather. Next, find some fun, contemporary queer YA to read while outside in said nice weather.
Well, surprise! There’s a way to do both: a scavenger hunt. Go out and explore the world, have an adventure, and your reward at the end? An entertaining queer YA new release that might just be your next favorite, and, oh yeah, a fun adventure to remember.
Of course, this quiz can be taken from the comfort of your own home, but if you want, you can also take these questions to the streets and find all of these things in real life. On that note, if you find a road sign of a cow with a flying saucer, please tell me about it, because that is amazing.
Okay, scavenger hunters! Time to get your hunting gear together — maybe a camera, a magnifying glass, and some good walking shoes — and then get to hunting. When you’ve found what you’re looking for, come back here, and let’s talk books.
As always, all of the results are included at the end for all of you snoopy people who need to have access to all the options. I see you.
