Young Dumb Broke High School Kids

$17.00

by Nicholas Pilapil

Everything sucks for high school kids Bliss, Olivia, and Miles. Bliss is a dreamer but she's knocked up and knocked down, Olivia is a lover with no one to love her back, and Miles is an orphan who would kill to have a family. And together they sling back slushies, scarf down chili cheese fries, and try to sort out their lives in the most dangerous ways. They're unloved and messed up...and it's whatever.
