About This Book

From a fresh new voice with talent to burn comes this brash, bitter-sweet novel about Tracy Ellison, a young, middle-class teen coming of age in Philadelphia's ostentatious eighties. Tracy is willing to go much further than any of her girlfriends as she sets out to lure the most popular boys in her neighborhood.
