Kendra's mom was only fourteen when she had Kendra. Then she left Kendra with Kendra's grandmother and finished school--all the way up to Princeton. Now Kendra's fourteen, and her grandmother wants her mother to start playing a part in her life...especially when Kendra starts getting into trouble with boys. As she did in her debut novel, Tyrell, Coe Booth creates the vivid voice of a teen trying to find her place in the world--even though nothing (not family, not friendship, not sex, not love) is what she thought it would be.
