Three misfits come together to avenge the rape of a fellow classmate and in the process trigger a change in the misogynist culture at their high school transforming the lives of everyone around them in this searing and timely story. Who are the Nowhere Girls? They’re everygirl. But they start with just three: Grace Salter is the new girl in town, whose family was run out of their former community after her southern Baptist preacher mom turned into a radical liberal after falling off a horse and bumping her head. Rosina Suarez is the queer punk girl in a conservative Mexican immigrant family, who dreams of a life playing music instead of babysitting her gaggle of cousins and waitressing at her uncle’s restaurant. Erin Delillo is obsessed with two things: marine biology and Star Trek: The Next Generation, but they aren’t enough to distract her from her suspicion that she may in fact be an android. When Grace learns that Lucy Moynihan, the former occupant of her new home, was run out of town for having accused the popular guys at school of gang rape, she’s incensed that Lucy never had justice. For their own personal reasons, Rosina and Erin feel equally deeply about Lucy’s tragedy, so they form an anonymous group of girls at Prescott High to resist the sexist culture at their school, which includes boycotting sex of any kind with the male students.

Amy Reed
AMY REED nasceu e cresceu em Seattle, onde frequentou oito escolas até seus dezoito anos. Mudar o tempo todo a ensinou a ser inquieta, e ser filha única fez sua imaginação criar coisas engraçadas. Em São Francisco, passou alguns anos servindo café e se metendo em encrenca. Formou-se em Cinema, mas decidiu que não queria nada com o tema e retornou ao seu amor original pela escrita. Depois de treze anos morando em São Francisco, ela agora está morando nas montanhas do oeste da Carolina do Norte, com o marido, a filha e o cachorro. Em seu tempo livre, Amy gosta de ler (obviamente), correr, cozinhar, comer, fazer listas e sair com seu marido, Brian, e sua filha, Elouise, que é oficialmente a pessoa mais legal do mundo.
