'It's Carrie Bradshaw's columns in Sex and the City on steroids.' - The Times
'Everything is IMMEDIATE. Emphasised.' - The Times
'It's a kind of rags-to-unexpected-riches-to-devastating-realisation-back-to-older-wiser-rags type tale, almost 18th century in progression, except set in a thoroughly modern, even slightly futuristic world where life online is even more all consuming than we know it now.' - Sunday Independent

'Seriously hot' - Cosmopolitan

GIRLCRUSH is a dark feminist retelling of Jekyll & Hyde by bestselling author Florence Given.
In Given's debut novel, we follow Eartha on a wild, weird and seductive modern-day exploration as she commences life as an openly bisexual woman whilst also becoming a viral sensation on Wonderland, a social media app where people project their dream selves online.
The distance between her online and offline self grows further and further apart until something dark happens that leads her into total self-destruction, forcing Eartha to make a choice; which version of herself should she kill off?
Warning this book does include storylines that some readers may find triggering.
Florence Given is a bestselling feminist author, award-winning podcaster and illustrator based in LA. She grew up in Plymouth and left school to pursue art and writing.
Florence broke records with her first book, Women Don't Owe You Pretty, a feminist manifesto which challenged outdated patriarchal narratives and inspired women across the globe. In all her work, from her non-fiction writing to her debut novel and hit podcast, Florence uses her platform to bring women together and give them a permission slip to define feminism and their own lives, on their own terms.
