About this listen
Fifteen-year-old Evia Birtwhistle can’t seem to catch a break. At home, she must deal with her free-spirited mom, and at school she’s the target of ridicule for stating basic truths: like that girls have body hair!
When her BFF Frankie—who has facial hair due to her PCOS—becomes the target of school bullies, Evia decides that enough is enough and creates the ‘Hairy Girls’ Club.’
Leading a feminist movement at school is not easy. Boys often look at Evia like she’s a total weirdo, and the self-proclaimed ‘smoothalicious’ girls start their own campaign in retaliation. As Evia struggles with feeling strong enough to lead, and questions how to be a good friend to Frankie, she falls back on the best thing she has—hope. Her message is simple: We CAN make this world a more accepting, less judgmental place for girls to live in…one hairy leg at a time!

Critic Reviews
"This book is charming, educational, and makes you want to shout against the hair-removal industry and love your body hair!"—BUST Magazine
"Readers will root for Evia through both failure and triumph. Charming and ultimately hopeful."—Kirkus Reviews
"Boistrous humor adds levity to empathetic depictions of [the characters'] growing body autonomy as well as their awareness of the sexist conditioning behind their own fraught body image."—Publishers Weekly
