This was such a fun book. It was very inspiring and sweet. I listened to this on audio and highly recommend the audio. It was soooo good.

 "Now get out there beautiful and go find your person, or people or escort or best friend or whomever the hell you want, romantically or otherwise."

 
Riley Weaver has a dream of joining the Gaybutante Society and it's finally his year to apply! To join, he has to meet the four pillars of the society: Service, Hosting, Mentorship and General Gay Chaos. And lastly, he needs a date to the ball. While trying to decide how to meet the pillars, he makes a bet that leads to his ridiculously long-named podcast, Riley Weaver needs a Date to the Gaybutante Ball. Will he pull it off while embodying the spirit of the Gaybutante Society? This was a fabulous coming of age story about Riley and his friends. Exceptionally bingeable, I'm looking forward to reading all of Jason June's books!
