A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is struggling with the performative nature of social media or feeling disillusioned by the influence of 'mega-churches' and online personalities. It is a sharp, satirical look at three girls in a small Florida town who plot to fake a kidnapping to expose the hypocrisy of a local internet-famous youth pastor. The book explores deep-seated needs for belonging, the ethics of digital manipulation, and the weight of financial stress on young people. While the premise is high-stakes and humorous, it provides a safe space to discuss peer pressure and the often-blurry line between justice and vengeance. It is ideal for mature teens who enjoy dark humor and contemporary social commentary.
