RX by Tracy Lynn
From the talented author that brought you the Nine Lives of Chloe King series comes a timely and thought-provoking novel inspired by the epidemic of prescription drug abuse among teens. Thyme Gilcrest is an honors student. Thyme Gilcrest is popular. Thyme Gilcrest is on student council. Thyme Gilcrest is a drug dealer. Thyme Gilcrest is doing everything she can to stay afloat in her over-achieving high school. She's broken into the academic elite--The Twenty--but barely. So when her best friend Will refuses to take his newly-prescribed Ritalin, Thyme steals it. With SATs quickly approaching, she must keep her self-diagnosed ADHD in check. One prescription is not enough, though. And soon Thyme is trading with classmates to get the meds she needs. It's addictive--not the pills, but the feeling of power that comes with the trade. Her friends come to her for advice. For prescriptions. And Thyme can't help but oblige them all. A fascinating look at a class superstar who is dealing with the stress--by dealing prescription pills.Tracy Lynn is a fictitious name. Liz Braswell is a genuine person with a real name. Liz obtained a degree in Egyptology from Brown University and then spent the following ten years making video games, as one might expect from a writer. Because the assassins hunting her were all dead by then, she gave in to fate and wrote Snow, her first novel, followed by the Nine Lives of Chloe King series under her true name. Liz, her husband, two children, and the occasional luna moth reside in Brooklyn.
