This is an extraordinary Ya novel in verse about the online shaming of a teenage girl. During astronomy-lover Frankie's first sexual experience with the quiet and lovely Benjamin, she gets her period. It's only blood, they agree. But soon a graphic meme goes viral, turning an innocent, intimate afternoon into something disgusting, mortifying and damaging.
As the online shaming takes on a horrifying life of its own, Frankie begins to wonder :is her real life over? A punchy, vivid and funny story of first-time love, hormone-fuelled sexuality and intense female friendships ? whilst addressing, head-on, the ongoing exploitation of young girls online and the horror of going viral. Both shocking and uplifting, it cuts to the heart of what it is to be a teenager today and shows the power of friendship to find joy in even the darkest skies.
