Black Girl, Jump

In this speculative YA horror for fans of Get Out, a Black teenager is swept into the topsy-turvy world of a wellness retreat that promises to make all girls shine.

“Spine-tingling and hallucinogenic, this social horror is feverish and compulsively readable.”—Jihyun Yun, USA Today bestselling author of And the River Drags Her Down

Oh please, join us, Sweetie. For a summer, perhaps?
A lovely Experience, we’ll promise you that.
With our river that sparkles and bites (not too bad!),
Where the trees sing along and your skin won’t be—Shhhh

Oh please, join us, Sweetie. For a summer, just one?
You’ll look so, so pretty in our white blinding sun—
—at our woodsy retreat where history rhymes
And the truth is quite truthful—well, most of the time…

Oh please, join us, Sweetie. Have we convinced you yet?
A summer with Sweeties is as sweet as it gets.

The girls will all love you. Oh, they’ll lick you right up!

We see you. Adore you. We need you.
Now JUMP.

“Black Girl, Jump is the book I needed as a young Black girl, and I am so grateful it exists now."—Ashley Blaine Featherson-Jenkins, star of Netflix's Dear White People
