All Pen wants is to be the kind of girl she's always been. So why does everyone have a problem with it? They think the way she looks and acts means she's trying to be a boy—that she should quit trying to be something she's not. If she dresses like a girl and does what her folks want it will show respect. If she takes orders and does what her friend Colby wants it will show her loyalty.
But respect and loyalty Pen discovers are empty words. Old-world parents disintegrating friendships and strong feelings for other girls drive Pen to see the truth—that in order to be who she truly wants to be she'll have to man up.
Perfect for fans of Meredith Russo Becky Albertalli Alex Sanchez and Jaye Robin Brown!
