ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Ryan Douglass is a queer author and poet from Atlanta, Georgia. He is the New York Times bestselling author of The Taking of Jake Livingston, and his short fiction appears in All These Sunken Souls and Night of the Living Queers. His poetry is featured in Poemhood: Our Black Revival and He/She/They/Us. When he’s not writing, he’s probably baking something sweet or making a playlist for a story he hasn’t written yet.

ABOUT THE BOOK

From New York Times bestselling author Ryan Douglass comes (On Sale 1/27/25), a gripping and tender queer and Black reimagining of The Great Gatsby about the pursuit of happiness—and love—in a society built on cruelty and secrets in the vein of Last Night at the Telegraph Club and The Chosen and the Beautiful.


Born and raised in Columbia, South Carolina, Shanna Miles considers herself a dyed-in-the-wool Southern girl. She lives in Georgia with her family. When she’s not working as a high school librarian, she can be found writing. Visit her online at shannamiles.net or on Twitter at @srmilesauthor.
