Description
First there was Bridget Jones. Then there was Georgia Nicolson. Now get ready to meet Patch Simmons . . .
The Romantic Tragedies of a Drama King is the hilarious rom-com debut from rising star Harry Trevaldwyn, perfect for fans of Heartstopper.
Patch has decided that this is the year he will get a boyfriend, so it's goodbye to his French pen-pal Jean-Pierre and hello to the world!
Unfortunately, the only other "out" boys in his school year are dating each other, so finding a boyfriend isn't going to be easy... Until fate finally intervenes and two new mysterious boys join drama club: Peter, who’s just moved from New York (very chic) and his best friend, Sam.
Patch is confident that one of them will be his first boyfriend. So, armed with his over-supportive best friend Jean and an alarming level of self-confidence, Patch sets out to make his mission a success. Whether or not they actually like boys or him is a problem for later.
The Romantic Tragedies of a Drama King is a heartfelt, laugh-out-loud comedy about boldly being yourself and never losing sight of who truly has your back.

What a delight to listen to! Hilarious, entertaining and endearing. I flew through the audiobook and had many laugh out loud moments. I quickly became fond of Patch and invested in his journey. A delight to listen to. Jean is a trooper! Would make for a great series! "It's only bloody cake" will be more new motto for the foreseeable

🎭💔🔥 BOOK REVIEW - THE ROMANTIC TRAGEDIES OF A DRAMA KING by Harry Trevaldwyn 🎭💔🔥
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I absolutely loved The Romantic Tragedies of a Drama King! Some might call it childish, but I had a fantastic time living in Patch's delusion—his outrageous antics and over-the-top emotions had me laughing out loud and feeling every bit of teen turmoil. Harry Trevaldwyn’s witty writing and brilliant narration bring every scene to life, making this YA queer romance an absolute delight.
From the playful banter to the bittersweet moments of first love and self-discovery, every page is a rollercoaster of humour and heart. It’s a wild, wonderfully absurd adventure that perfectly captures the drama of youth and delightfully stereotypical queerness.
Huge thanks to NetGalley, Macmillan UK Audio, and Harry Trevaldwyn for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
