Dairy Queen was a fun little young adult book. About cows! And girls playing football! And figuring out your place in the world, in your family, in your relationships. Who knew a 250 page book set on a dairy farm in Wisconsin could touch on so many themes?
Dysfunctional family but only mildly so. Lesbians in high school, who knew?! Farm girl falls for popular boy, popular boy falls for farm girl but that sort of thing never works out in high school so everyone gets hurt and of course it is farm girl’s fault for being – awesome. Girls should not be so awesome, it makes popular boys uncomfortable. Bah.
I liked it. I would have liked the last few chapters to be a little different but that’s probably just me.

I liked this one. I thought it did a decent job with those themes considering the length of the book. It wasn’t quite what I expected but then I’m not really sure what I did expect.
