What to expect
Thankfully, she has two great best friends to help her to the finish line (is it still a GBF if they’re all gay?)—Edie, the resident mom friend with valedictorian status, who must navigate her deeply religious family while having a nonbinary partner she doesn’t want them to meet, and Georgia, a poet with her educational future in doubt, who is dealing with her mom's questionable new boyfriend.
Debut author Dale Walls serves up an intimate and joyous story of queer friendship and girlhood set in the vibrant city of Houston, perfect for fans of Leah Johnson and Sonora Reyes. The Queer Girl Is Going to Be Okay will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you believe that eventually, everything really will be okay.

Synopsis
It's college acceptance season at Alsbury High School. For aspiring filmmaker Dawn Salcedo, spring brings more than the usual obstacles—she’s her ill father's only caregiver, the final deadline for the Austin Film Festival is looming (with a full ride to college on the line), and her documentary about queer love, a subject she’s desperate to get a firmer grasp on, is still missing its finishing pieces. Thankfully, she has two great best friends to help her to the finish line (is it still a GBF if they’re all gay?)—Edie, the resident mom friend with valedictorian status, who must navigate her deeply religious family while having a nonbinary partner she doesn’t want them to meet, and Georgia, a poet with her educational future in doubt, who is dealing with her mom's questionable new boyfriend.Debut author Dale Walls serves up an intimate and joyous story of queer friendship and girlhood set in the vibrant city of Houston, perfect for fans of Leah Johnson and Sonora Reyes.
