The Exact Opposite of Okay by Laura Steven

Izzy O’Neill is an aspiring comic, an impoverished orphan, and a Slut Extraordinaire. Or at least, that’s what the malicious website flying round the school says.

Izzy’s never been ashamed of herself before, and she’s not going to start now. But keeping her head up will take everything she has…

I love stories about young women discovering their power both in fantasy and contemporary, so this sounds like something I could really enjoy.
