The opening lesson of Juno Dawsons guide to gender and sexuality, This Book is Gay. Sally slowly realises that she is unable to control Molly Sue. Juno Dawson grew up in West Yorkshire and now lives in Brighton. And she has no interest in staying quiet and being a good girl - in fact, she's mighty delighted to have a body to take charge of again. She is a School Role Model for Stonewall and works with the charity First Story, which runs writing and storytelling workshops in underprivileged schools. Almost immediately, Sally begins to hear voices in her head - or rather, one voice in particular: Molly Sue's. Almost before she knows what she is doing, Sally selects sexy pin-up Molly Sue, and has her tattooed on her back - hoping that Molly Sue will inspire her to be as confident and popular as she is in her dreams.īut things quickly take a nightmareish turn. Accidentally ending up in the seedier side of town one day, Sally finds herself mysteriously lured to an almost-hidden tattoo parlour - and once inside, Sally is quickly seduced by its charming owner, Rosita, and her talk of how having a secret tattoo can be as empowering as it is thrilling. Her super-conservative parents and her treatment at the hands of high school bullies means that Sally's about as shy and retiring as they come - but all that's about to change. Seventeen-year-old Sally Feather is not exactly a rebel. Once she's under your skin there's no getting rid of her. ![]()
