Description
In this powerful novel, five teenagers from diverse backgrounds find themselves entangled in the world of sex work as they desperately seek connection, security, and a sense of belonging. Their individual journeys, initially separate, begin to intertwine, revealing a larger narrative about the complex search for freedom, family, and love in the face of profound challenges. Through raw and unflinching verse, the story explores the difficult choices these young people make, the leaps of faith they take, and the painful process of growing up. It's a poignant examination of identity, desire, and the often-devastating costs of seeking validation, all told with Ellen Hopkins' signature emotional depth and lyrical prose.
