| Format: | To the world around her, Sixteen-year-old Alicia Rivers is like the mythical Medusa, cast not as the victim but as the monster of her own story: the slut who asked for it. What her classmates who judge and shame her for having sex don't know is that Alicia was sexually abused by a popular teacher, leaving her traumatized and alone. When mysterious letters left in her locker hint at another victim, Alicia struggles to keep up the walls she's built around her. At the same time, her growing attraction to a new girl in school makes her question what those walls were really keeping out. Alicia fights to reclaim her story, her anger, and her body in a world that seems determined to punish her for the sin of surviving on her own terms. |
