Description

Slag. Noun. A promiscuous woman, of cheap or questionable character. Mostly derogatory. Sometimes affectionate.

Takes one to know one…

Sisters Sarah and Juliette are going on a whisky-fuelled campervan road-trip across Scotland to celebrate Juliette’s birthday – and they’re going to dig up some demons from the past.

Sarah is 15.

SEXUAL 2.5 (one only went halfway in)

GREAT 1 (her English teacher Mr Keaveney, who definitely feels the same way)

Her annoying younger sister Juliette

Her best friend Nessa, boy band 4Princes

Sarah is 41.

SEXUAL Rather not say, but that last one was compellingly awful

GREAT Nope

Millennials like Juliette thinking they’ve got it bad

Fellow Gen X-ers

From the acclaimed author of ANIMALS and ADULTS, SLAGS is a no-holds-barred, frank and heartfelt exploration of sisterhood, friendship and teenage obsession.
