The kinetic novel follows Kriem Blakey, a young mixed race punk teenager, as she graduates highschool and becomes an adult trying to figure out what she want's to do with the rest of her life. During the story she struggles with a feuding family, and invasive stepmother, and a police raid on her home in search of her criminal brother. She must decide how she's going to get her life on track so she doesn't end up in prison like people expect her too, and if she can swallow her pride enough to achieve her goals.
