Tricks, Paperback

Introducing the Tricks Paperback - an emotionally gripping novel that tackles the harrowing issue of teen prostitution. Written by renowned author Publishers Weekly, this book delves into the lives of five struggling teenagers as they find themselves caught in the dark world of turning tricks. Fans of Publishers Weekly's work will delight in the signature free verses and gritty details that she seamlessly weaves into the narrative. However, for newcomers, be forewarned that this novel contains graphic depictions of the teenagers' experiences.

One heart-wrenching story reveals a young girl who realizes her mother has sold her for a night with a stranger, while another shares the chilling account of a teenager pretending to enjoy deviant sex to gain the trust of a guard in a religious rehabilitation camp. While some elements of the plot may seem cliched, such as the preacher's daughter from Idaho being banished to the Tears of Zion camp after being caught with her boyfriend, each story unfolds slowly but powerfully. Readers will gain a deep understanding of the protagonists' desperation and experience a profound sense of their complete powerlessness once their descents into prostitution begin. Each of the five stories in this paperback is uniquely compelling. From a teenager in need of money to another who was rejected because of their sexuality, and yet another who was simply searching for love in the wrong places, readers will form connections with these characters and their painful journeys. Recommended for readers ages 14 and up, Tricks Paperback by Publishers Weekly is a thought-provoking and unforgettable novel that sheds light on an important societal issue.
