About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their teenager is navigating the complex social hierarchies of high school or when a community is struggling to hold influential figures accountable for their actions. It is an essential choice for discussing institutional sexism, the nuances of consent, and the courage required to challenge the status quo when everyone else prefers to look the other way. Fifteen-year-old Nora finds herself at the center of a local scandal after she becomes the target of a disturbing fraternity tradition involving the town's beloved star athletes. As Nora pushes for justice, she faces intense pressure from a community that prioritizes its football legacy over her safety. This story is best suited for older teens (14+) due to its mature themes of sexual harassment and peer pressure, offering a powerful model for standing up for oneself even when it feels like the whole world is waiting for you to fail.
