Crooked Lines

By Annabeth Chatwin

♥ When is a best friend something more?

January, 1997: Southern girl Ruby's crash-landed in Pennsylvania, where kids mimic her accent and laugh at her clothes. Punk rock Josie gets it: they've been laughing at her Doc Martens and Sharpie'd nails for years. Ruby had friends in Savannah, but no friends quite like Josie. Josie drags her to Denny's at midnight. Her car's plastered in stickers. And her dashboard hulu girl dances as they drive their own road to nowhere.

Ruby and Josie are quick friends. Then quick best friends. But why does Ruby bite back bare-your-teeth jealousy when Josie talks about boys? They both like guys. Neither is a "lezzy" - the worst punch those popular kids can throw. Ruby and Josie are just best friends. Right? Right?

A story of two teens sorting out their sexuality with only whispered words, Crooked Lines shows what queer and bisexual girls faced not very long ago - and how they tried to overcome it.
