From the author of the acclaimed This Raging Light comes a feminist, relatable, and ultimately triumphant novel about a girl who rejects the label society has given her and decides for herself who she is to the world.
“A powerful, poignant story about a girl rewriting her story on her own terms . . . tender, painful, hilarious, and courageous.”—Kathleen Glasgow, New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces
Jo Beckett is looking for love. She’s fallen for a few boys, but for some reason, they’ve never fallen for her. One night at a party, she finds out the truth. Those boys, who are on the wrestling team she manages, consider her just a “practice girl”—the term for girl who’s good enough to hook up with but not to date.
With this crushing revelation, Jo feels so many things—heartsick, ashamed, betrayed, and angry. But she refuses to let that label define her. In piecing her self-esteem back together, Jo is forced to unpack more uncomfortable truths about all her relationships—from her best friend to the boy she likes—to understand her real worth.
