# Reckless, Glorious, Girl - Hardcover

by **Ellen Hagan** (Author)

**The co-author of _Watch Us Rise_ pens a novel in verse about all the good and bad that comes with middle school, growing up girl, and the strength of family that gets you through it.**

Beatrice Miller may have a granny's name (her granny's, to be more specific), but she adores her Mamaw and her mom, who give her every bit of wisdom and love they have. But the summer before seventh grade, Bea wants more than she has, aches for what she can't have, and wonders what the future will bring.

This novel in verse follows Beatrice through the ups and downs of friendships, puberty, and identity as she asks: Who am I? Who will I become? And will my outside ever match the way I feel on the inside?

A gorgeous, inter-generational story of Southern women and a girl's path blossoming into her sense of self, _Reckless, Glorious, Girl_ explores the important questions we all ask as we race toward growing up.
