MA PREMIÈRE FOIS

A raw, inclusive and multifaceted collection of short stories that reads like a balm for a generation whose first sexual experiences all too often go hand in hand with performance anxiety.

It was blah, wow, awkward, hilarious, catastrophic. We never talk about these often imperfect first encounters. What if we really told it like it was, with no filters, and no taboos? A number of popular YA authors rose to the challenge and agreed to share the experience of their first sexual encounters for this collection of short stories. Read about the young Haitian immigrant who got freaked out by what she found between her legs, the teenager who couldn't keep his hands out of his pants, the romantics whose expectations fell flat, and the guy who had a hard time going down on his childhood best friend next to a bag of Doritos. With a little bit of intimacy and a whole lot of honesty, these stories are all about reassuring and normalizing things for young people.
