Summary
When Malena Rosario goes to school bra-less after a bad sunburn and is humiliated by the school administration into covering up, she feels like she has no choice but to comply. But when Ruby McAlister notices the new girl is being forced to cover up her chest, she isn't willing to keep quiet about it. Before long, Malena and Ruby are the (unexpected) leaders of the school's dress code rebellion. But the girls will have to face their own insecurities, biases, and privileges, and the ups and downs in their newfound friendship, if they want to stand up for their ideals and––ultimately––for themselves
