When getting even doesn't work out the way you intended... but maybe that's good because of what it leads to. Meet the next book on our list of 2025 nominees, THE LAST BOYFRIENDS RULES FOR REVENGE by @matthewhubbard.bsky.social #booksky #YAreads

Happy Book Lovers Day from the Last Boyfriends & the Rebels 📚💕

Matthew Hubbard @matthewhubbard.bsky.social · Aug 7

The Last Boyfriends Rules for Revenge is like The First Wives Club with 3 queer boys in Alabama who set out to get revenge on their exes but start a student rebellion against “Don’t Say Gay.” The Rebel’s Guide to Pride has a bad boy who throws speakeasies after a small-town MAGA mayor bans Pride.

I’ve turned in my 1st round of edits for DROP DEAD HANDSOME (my queer Miss Congeniality romcom book)!

Can’t wait to scream about my short, bisexual king who has to compete against his ex-girlfriend in a pageant…while falling for his male escort…while someone is sabotaging him.

Coming Fall 2026. 👑💖

I sweet talked my friends to come over for a KPop Demon Hunters movie night so they can obsess over HUNTR/X (and Jinu) as much as I do 😌

Matthew Hubbard @matthewhubbard.bsky.social · Jul 13

Typically the paperback is around a year after initial release date, so it should be sometime in May!

Matthew Hubbard @matthewhubbard.bsky.social · Jul 13

Thank you so much for these kind words, and I’m so glad you enjoyed it — you’re an honorary last boyfriend!

THE LAST BOYFRIENDS RULES FOR REVENGE by @matthewhubbard.bsky.social - a glorious rebellion of a book!

Ezra's revenge on his ex turns to a student revolution-homophobes haven't heard of the Streisand Effect.

Unrelenting, powerful, adorable romance included!

I dived into the queerness of the 90s Batman movies and the history of queer identities in comics — plus queer book & graphic novel recommendations!

If you’re in the SD area and enjoy fun thrillers about bad lacrosse bros, and love the 90s, join us tomorrow at the Barnes & Noble in Encinitas!
