Gay the Pray Away

ebook
“Achingly heartfelt and resoundingly beautiful. I need more books from Natalie Naudus ASAP!”—Julie Abe, author of The Charmed List and Our Cursed Love
In this gripping queer YA romance perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston and Becky Albertalli, an Asian American teen longs to break free of the conservative cult she was raised in.

Valerie Danners is in a cult. She just doesn’t know it yet. But when she stumbles upon a queer romance novel at the library, everything about her life—centered around a conservative Christian homeschool cult—is thrown into question.
Worst of all, there’s a new girl in town. Riley is rebellious, kindhearted, and impossibly cool. As the two bond over being multiracial teens in their very white and very religious community, Valerie finds herself falling in love.
Soon Valerie and Riley are exchanging notes in secret and stealing kisses behind the church. But even as their romance blooms, Valerie knows that they’re trapped. If Valerie wants a chance at writing her own story, she must choose between staying with a family she fears will never accept her or running away with the girl she loves.
