Firsts

Author: Laurie Elizabeth Flynn 
Pages: 320
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
Release Date: January 5th 2016
Seventeen-year-old Mercedes Ayres has an open-door policy when it comes to her bedroom, but only if the guy fulfills a specific criteria: he has to be a virgin. Mercedes lets the boys get their awkward, fumbling first times over with, and all she asks in return is that they give their girlfriends the perfect first time- the kind Mercedes never had herself. Keeping what goes on in her bedroom a secret has been easy- so far. Her absentee mother isn’t home nearly enough to know about Mercedes’ extracurricular activities, and her uber-religious best friend, Angela, won’t even say the word “sex” until she gets married. But Mercedes doesn’t bank on Angela’s boyfriend finding out about her services and wanting a turn- or on Zach, who likes her for who she is instead of what she can do in bed. When Mercedes’ perfect system falls apart, she has to find a way to salvage her reputation and figure out where her heart really belongs in the process. Funny, smart, and true-to-life, FIRSTS is a one-of-a-kind young adult novel about growing up.

Why I'm Waiting...

I think this is the first time I have mentioned this book here on my blog and I'm pretty excited about that. Firsts seems like such an interesting novel. For one, what Mercedes does is very different from what I have read. (Different as in I have never read anything like this!) I am looking forward to getting to know more about Angela and Zach because they are definitely going to have big parts in this story. Based on the synopsis, I want to make a guess that Mercedes little "hobby" get's out and this story is basically her trying to pick up the pieces of her life. Super excited for this story and where Mercedes's story goes!

So tell me: Have you heard of this book? If so, what are your thoughts on it?
