Pretty Furious

Description

#1 NYT Bestseller E.K. Johnston returns to contemporary feminist YA. This story of a small town, fierce friendships, and revenge served cold is a perfect companion to Exit, Pursued by a Bear.

In the small town of Eganston, Ontario, five good girls have had enough. They’ve experienced the best of what their community has to offer, but they’ve seen the darker side too. Together, they’ve decided that it’s time for a reckoning and that justice is their privilege to give.“Johnston is at her best sinking her pen into the guts and glory of girlhood and Pretty Furious is Johnston at her truth-telling best. A novel about the painful intricacies of small-town life, the hurt of growing up and seeing the hypocrisy in others, and the power of female friendship.” —Tess Sharpe, author of The Girls I’ve BeenE.K. Johnston is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of several YA novels, including the L.A. Time Book Prize finalist The Story of Owen and Star Wars: Ahsoka.

Johnston lives in southwestern OntarioUS
