The Exact Opposite of Okay - Izzy O'Neill (Paperback)

Join us for an evening of YA epic-ness as we host the launch of Laura Steven's 'The Exact Opposite Of Okay'!

Laura will be in conversation with Katherine Webber (author of the wonderful 'Wing Jones'), introducing us to Izzy O'Neill and the most awesome feminist novel you will ever read.

"Izzy O'Neill here! Impoverished orphan, aspiring comedian and Slut Extraordinaire, if the gossip sites are anything to go by . . .

Izzy never expected to be eighteen and internationally reviled. But when explicit photos involving her, a politician's son and a garden bench are published online, the trolls set out to take her apart. Armed with best friend Ajita and a metric ton of nachos, she tries to laugh it off - but as the daily slut-shaming intensifies, she soon learns the way the world treats teenage girls is not okay. It's the Exact Opposite of Okay.

Bitingly funny and shockingly relevant, The Exact Opposite of Okay is a bold, brave and necessary read. For readers of The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas, Doing It by Hannah Witton and Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls by Elena Favilli and Francesca Cavallo."
