Riley Weaver Needs a Date to the Gaybutante Ball was an incredibly sweet and thoughtful read. Riley's faced by femmephobia within our very own community where, unfortunately, even more phobias rise. Our community absolutely battles amongst itself and this story addresses those struggles while also showing that Riley makes mistakes along the way too. I love that Riley acknowledges that people will continue to make mistakes, as I'm someone who believes we will be making dumb decisions until the day we die. That's life. Taking a step in the right direction to do better will happen at every age and it's what matters. I also love that this took a direction I didn't expect. I was curious if Riley would end up with anyone by the end of the book and I might have been hoping for a certain couple from the get-go that, thankfully, won! All in all, I had a fun time with Riley's story and I'll have the warm fuzzies for at least a week after this.
