If you have questions for JVN or Julie please email marketing@kingsenglish.com About the Book From Emmy Award winner Jonathan Van Ness ofQueer Eyeand #1New York Timesbestselling author Julie Murphy comes a bighearted story about friendship, love—and discovering the secrets and beauty of your own hometown. Sully is ready to get out of Hearst, Pennsylvania. With a fashion internship secured, the gender-nonconforming eighteen-year-old is trading in their stifling small town for the big city. Sully even sells their beloved car, to Bread—er, Brad—the most boring (and maybe only other) gay kid in town. When Sully’s internship goes up in smoke, they’re trapped in Hearst with no cash—and no car. Desperate, they go to the thrift store, their personal sanctuary. There, they discover a vintage bag—like  put this baby in an airtight case at the MET  vintage. If Sully can authenticate it, the resale value would be enough for a new life in the city. But when they begin to investigate, Sully finds themself haunted. Literally. With the ghost of Rufus, a drag performer from the fifties with no memory of how he died standing—no, floating—in their bedroom, Sully’s summer has a new purpose: 1) help this ghostly honey unlock his past and move on and 2) make bank—after all, the Real Real doesn’t take poltergeist purses. With Rufus in tow, and Brad—who’s looking pretty scrumptious these days—playing chauffeur, Sully delves into the history of the town they’re so desperate to escape. Only to discover that there might be more to Hearst than they ever knew.

Temple Square

Historic buildings

小思文

Temple Square is also a very characteristic place in Salt Lake City. You can see some quite interesting design styles on the square. The entire Temple Square is a huge place worth visiting. The square is surrounded by many local community complexes.

Utah State Capitol

The Utah State Capitol is also a place worth visiting. The Parliament House is quite large and is the most important administrative place of the Utah State Government. Many of the designs in the building are more interesting. It is more difficult to apply for a visit here.

This Is The Place Heritage Park

This was our first stop to Salt Lake City. We had friends who had lived in the area for many years. This is where the first Mormon settlers arrived. There are many monuments describing this history and a visitor center with a small movie with this history.

Salt Lake City Tabernacle

The Great Chapel is also a huge gathering place. It is located near the Temple of the Demon Sect. The chapel here is also a favorite gathering place for local Americans. The decoration and design inside the chapel are very distinctive. I like some of the styles here very much.
