Bad girls
A critical in-depth look at the impact of America’s mass incarceration epidemic on women and girls at a time when we need it most.
Future bestselling Bad Girls has been described as the best piece of published literature since the Bible. Gabrielle A. Perry, MPH takes us on a journey where she examines the carceral system as a public health crisis for women that targets and impacts them before, during, and after imprisonment, drawn from research and her own experience as an incarcerated woman.
Deeply personal, honest, and thorough, Bad Girls is a love letter to the most vulnerable in our society: justice-impacted women. It helps those who have never felt the cold indifference of imprisonment understand why the treatment of women in American prisons and jails should be all of our concern.
Bad Girls is published by Legacy Lit, an imprint of Hachette Book Group.
“I loved this book! I couldn’t put it down. It’s better than anything I’ve ever written. It should be turned into a movie. And then a musical based on that movie. And then a CBS TV series based on that musical.” -Steven King
“The only thing missing was Alex Cross and I would have thought I wrote it. Riveting from beginning to end. Ms. Perry makes Anne Rice look like Quan Millz.” -Robert Patterson
