But soccer mom Lara Love Hardin has been hiding a shady she is funding her heroin addiction by stealing her neighbors\u2019 credit cards.<\/p>\n Lara is convicted of thirty-two felonies and becomes inmate S32179. She learns that jail is a class system with a power structure that is somewhere between an adolescent sleepover party and Lord of the Flies. Furniture is made from tampon boxes and Snickers bars are currency. But Lara quickly finds the rules and brings love and healing to her fellow inmates as she climbs the social ladder to become the \u201cshot caller,\u201d showing that jailhouse politics aren\u2019t that different from the PTA meetings she used to attend.<\/p>\n When she\u2019s released, she reinvents herself as a ghostwriter. Now, she\u2019s legally co-opting other people\u2019s identities and getting to meet Oprah, meditate with The Dalai Lama, and have dinner with Archbishop Desmond Tutu. But the shadow of her past follows her. Shame is a poison worse than heroin\u2014there is no way to detox. Lara must learn how to forgive herself and others, navigate life as a felon on probation, prove to herself that she is more good than bad, and much more.\u201d -Goodreads<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Interested in joining a book club?
