The Miss Meteor Beauty Pageant is an unlikeliest underdog story in pageant history, where girls like Lita Perez and Chicky Quintanilla come together to compete for the title of Miss Meteor.

This collaboration between two critically acclaimed YA authors offers a richly imagined story perfect for fans of Dumplin' and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe.

With Lita's brown skin giving way to patches of stardust, she believes that winning Miss Meteor is the only thing that will keep her from reverting to star form.

Chicky Quintanilla agrees to help Lita compete for the title, along with her fruit-named sisters who feel straight out of a fairy tale: Cereza, Uva, and Fresa.

Through their journey, they learn that the road to becoming Miss Meteor isn't about being perfect; it's about sharing who you are with the world—and loving the parts of yourself no one else understands.
