In Uses for Boys (St. Martin's Griffin), Erica Lorraine Scheidt's shocking and lyrical debut, young Anna remembers a time before boys when she was little and everything made sense. Now that her mom is gone most of the time, Anna is left on her own until she discovers that she can make boys her family. She learns that if you give boys what they want, you can get what you need — but the price is high. When Anna actually meets a boy who is more than just useful, the truth about love becomes clear, and she finally learns how it feels to have something to lose — as well as something to offer. Scheidt's Uses for Boys is a story of breaking down and growing up.
