A big Congratulations and Woo HOO!! to Sara Zarr for the release of her book, STORY OF A GIRL, which received a starred review from the School Library Journal.
“Throws a sharp right hook at the assumptions people make about girls who have sex early.” E. Lockhart
“This is a hell of a good book.” Chris Crutcher
“I literally stood up and cheered… A rare and wonderful book.” Lael Littke
“…This involving, touching first novel will resonate with those who have made mistakes and those who have not.” Kirkus.
STORY OF A GIRL
“When she is caught in the backseat of a car with her older brother’s best friend, Deanna Lambert’s teenage life is changed forever. Struggling to overcome the lasting repercussions and the stifling role of “school slut,” she longs to escape a life defined by her past.
With subtle grace, complicated wisdom, and striking emotion, Story of a Girl reminds us of our human capacity for resilience, epiphany, and redemption.”
So again, congratulations, Sara!
