THRISTY by Jas Hammonds is a YA novel about moving on from high school to college. Blake and her girlfriend have a goal to be admitted to the Serena Society. Members of this sorority are the best of the best, and the most popular and influential young women on campus. If they can score a spot in this elite group, it promises they will be set for life.
Part of the process involves getting the attention of the top girls in the group. There's a lot of partying and a lot of steps in the initiation process. Blake isn't as secure in the knowledge that she will be invited to join, so she goes overboard at the gatherings. Alcohol seems to fuel what she needs to show off for those who are judging the potential of future members. Unfortunately, Blake isn't always in control when she drinks.
Drinking brews trouble between her and girlfriend Ella, and her friend Annetta is always on the alert and worried about Blake when she drinks. With no one at home who really cares or watches out for Blake, things frequently get out of hand.
Author Jas Hammonds is also known for her novel WE DESERVE MONUMENTS. THIRSTY is a cautionary tale about taking things too far.
