Produktbeschreibung
Flick Talk follows four fifteen-year-old girls in Amarillo as they prepare for a joint quinceañera, a celebration meant to honor tradition, family, and community. But in the age of social media, nothing stays sacred. Tied together-and often torn apart-by a mysterious new app that amplifies secrets and insecurities, Bella, Sofi, Val, and Cami must navigate shifting friendships, parental expectations, and the pressure of becoming young women under everyone's watchful eye. Told through rotating perspectives, the story captures the cultural richness of a quinceañera while revealing the vulnerabilities hidden behind carefully curated posts. Each girl struggles with her own challenges-family tension, self-esteem, bullying, and the weight of appearances-yet their lives overlap in unexpected and dramatic ways. Props like duct-tape bracelets, chalk messages, and even drones turned into toys reflect the raw, everyday textures of their world, where privacy and performance constantly collide. At its heart, Flick Talk is more than a coming-of-age tale; it's a meditation on community versus spectacle, on the power of tradition in a digital age, and on what it means to truly grow up when your every move might be captured, shared, or judged. Blending culture, drama, and unflinching honesty, the novel offers a tense, cinematic journey toward an unforgettable quince performance that will either bind these girls together-or break them apart.
