Description
This coming-of-age debut novel divulges the life of a Mexican American punk barely surviving high school. Nikki Darling is a self-proclaimed ‘stoner chola.’ She cuts class, sneaks cigarettes, and crushes on her gay best friend. In dreamy, subterranean prose, Nikki captures the reckless defiance of girlhood – and the youthful insistence that everything will always remain wild, trashy, and free.
