THE INSIDE OF OUT

Jenn Marie Thorne

A brand-new companion novel to Jenn Marie Thorne’s critically-acclaimed debut, THE WRONG SIDE OF RIGHT.
When her best friend Hannah comes out the day before junior year, Daisy is so ready to let her ally flag fly. Even a second, way more blindsiding confession can't derail her smiling determination to fight for gay rights. Before you can spell LGBTQIA, Daisy's leading the charge to end their school's antiquated ban on same-sex dates at dances—starting with homecoming. And if people assume Daisy herself is gay? Meh, so what. It's all for the cause.

What Daisy doesn't expect is for "the cause" to blow up—starting with Adam, the cute college journalist whose interview with Daisy for his university paper goes viral, catching fire in the national media. #Holy #cats. With the story spinning out of control, protesters gathering, Hannah left in the dust of Daisy's good intentions, and Daisy's mad attraction to Adam feeling like an inconvenient truth, Daisy finds herself caught between her bold plans, her bad decisions, and her big fat mouth.

Jenn Marie Thorne graduated from NYU- Tisch with a BFA in drama and realized she was having more fun writing plays than performing in them. When a flurry of political scandals hit the news, Jenn wondered what the kids at the center of the media’s attention must be going through, and so began THE WRONGS SIDE OF RIGHT, her debut novel. Jenn lives and writes in beautiful Gulfport, Florida, alongside her husband, two sons, and hound dog Molly.

Funny and informative, The Inside of Out is about friendship, privilege and how even the most well-intentioned activists can still get it wrong.

Hilarious, heartwarming, and timely. You can’t help but root for lovable Daisy, whose character flaws lead her into the crosshairs of a national scuffle that’s really not her battle. This book made me want to eat mozzarella sticks at the diner with Thorne’s compelling, funny, painfully authentic characters.
