What It Feels Like For A Girl by Loretta Lees
A vivid, voice-driven coming-of-age memoir set in a working-class English town, it follows a teenager navigating nightlife, first loves, petty crime, and the harsh realities of the youth justice system while wrestling with identity in a world steeped in prejudice. With swagger, humor, and aching vulnerability, the story charts a turbulent path from confusion and survival to self-knowledge and becoming. Its experimental use of dialect and shifting perspectives amplifies the rush and wreckage of adolescence, confronting themes of gender, class, violence, and hope with unflinching honesty.
