Book description
From Emmy Award winner Jonathan Van Ness of Queer Eye and #1 New York Times bestselling author Julie Murphy comes a bighearted story about friendship, love-and discovering the secrets and beauty of your own hometown. Sully is ready to get out of Hearst, Pennsylvania. With a fashion internship secured, the gender-nonconforming eighteen-year-old is trading in their stifling small town for the big city. Sully even sells their beloved car, to Bread-er, Brad-the most boring (and maybe only other) gay kid in town.When Sully's internship goes up in smoke, they're trapped in Hearst with no cash-and no car. Desperate, they go to the thrift store, their personal sanctuary. There, they discover a vintage bag-like "put this baby in an airtight case at the MET" vintage. If Sully can authenticate it, the resale value would be enough for a new life in the city.But when they begin to investigate, Sully finds themself haunted. Literally. With the ghost of Rufus, a drag performer from the fifties with no memory of how he died standing-no, floating-in their bedroom, Sully's summer has a new purpose: 1) help this ghostly honey unlock his past and move on and 2) make bank-after all, the Real Real doesn't take poltergeist purses.With Rufus in tow, and Brad-who's looking pretty scrumptious these days-playing chauffeur, Sully delves into the history of the town they're so desperate to escape. Only to discover that there might be more to Hearst than they ever knew.
