✦ Synopsis

Slut-Shaming. Bullying. Anorexia. REVENGE. (You know, High School Stuff.)  Natasha "Tash" Bohner just turned eighteen. Theoretically, that should mean escaping from trailer park purgatory--and her less than stellar relationship with her widowed mother--and running away to Los Angeles with her anorexic best friend, Margot. But life is known for taking some very shitty, unexpected turns.  Already the scourge of the Guthrie High gossip mill, Tash's reputation takes an explosive turn into infamy when she assaults the captain of the wrestling team. (Spoiler alert: he totally deserved it.) The principal tells her she's on her last strike. But when Margot's will to live is threatened by the leader of the Guthrie Bitch Squad, Tash vows to get revenge on the most popular girl in school--no matter what it takes.  This might sound like a modern day Cinderella Story, but it is NOT a fairy tale. PROMISCUOUS is a novel of Young Adult contemporary hard knocks, which attacks issues like bullying, eating disorders and sexual assault head-on, without mercy. As one reader put it, "There is no warm up, no shallow easy beginning to dip your toes in to grow accustomed to its feel. Nope. Hold your breath and swim biatch, or prepare to drown."
