Bruk Out

By Adajay Brown

Jaesia Prendergast, a scholar at a prominent all-girls Jamaican high school, is tired of being a good girl.

She lives a life too simple: obeying her parents' rules; never toeing the line with her cookie-cutter friends; acing school every semester.

Her life's systematic. A routine developed on a foundation with one weakness: the desire to reshape the mold.

Jaesia craves the thrill other teenagers experience in their lives, so she jumps at an opportunity to rebel against the strict upbringing her estranged parents instilled in her.

What didn't she account for? Building a long list of disappointments as she encounters harsh consequences, and losing herself trying to fit into two contrasting worlds.

Now, Jaesia needs to find herself. By the time she realizes this, it just might be too late.

Bruk Out is a captivating, coming-of-age novel where a sheltered teen embarks on a journey of self-discovery while facing the conflicts of complex relationships and the high expectations of being a poster child.
