The Torn Skirt
The Torn Skirt: A Novel | Rebecca Godfrey
3 posts | 8 read
At Mt. Douglas (a.k.a. Mt. Drug) High, all the girls have feathered hair, and the sweet scent of Love's Baby Soft can't hide the musk of raw teenage anger, apathy, and desire. Sara Shaw is a girl full of fever and longing, a girl looking for something risky, something real. Her only possible salvation comes in the willowy form of the mysterious Justine, the outlaw girl in the torn skirt. The search for Justine will lead Sara on a daring odyssey into an underworld of hookers and johns, junkies and thieves, runaway girls and skater boys, and, ultimately, into a violent tragedy.

Pickpick

Luckily my February #bookspin pick was pretty short so I was able to knock it out in one sitting.

I‘d say this was between a “pick” and a “so-so” for me. It‘s definitely an angsty story. The style read very similarly to the subjective style of Catcher In The Rye - not to say the stories compare, but there‘s a similarity of feverish protagonists.

"Whatever passed between us then, I cannot name, but I bet it's the same thing that passes between spies who recognize each other, who are grateful to be seen at last by someone who knows the truth behind the disguise."
