Evie is not plucky, but when life's changes smash over her like the rough surf of the local shoreline, she muddles through--until that moment of loss and longing when muddling will no longer suffice. This is the story of what the baddest girl on the planet must find in herself when a bag of pastries, a new lover, or quick trip to Vegas won't fix anything, and when something more than casual haplessness is required. \u003ci\u003eThe Baddest Girl on the Planet\u003c\/i\u003e is inventive, sharp, witty, and poignant. Readers will want to jump in and advise this baddest girl on the planet--or at least just give her a shake or a hug--at every fascinating turn.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50101633581279,"sku":"9781949467840","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/cEJSZE1ZdmVYREx3a2M3TndjREZLdz09.webp?v=1781071865","url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/products\/the-baddest-girl-on-the-planet-paperback","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
