Good Time Girl: Receipts, Proof, Timelines, and Essays

In the "confident debut" (The Daily Beast) Bad Mormon, Heather Gay pulled back the veil on her orthodox adolescence and marriage in the Mormon Church, and the painful process of leaving it all behind. Becoming a successful business owner and reality TV star gave the single mom of three a second lease on life. After years of living in an insular bubble, Heather emerged bright-eyed, eager to take on the world...no matter how ill-equipped her upbringing might have left her.

Now, in this provocative and laugh-out-loud funny follow-up, the mother of three proves that she isn't just a Bad Mormon--she's also a Good Time Girl.

With her "thoughtful, smart, and funny" (Kirkus Reviews) writing, Heather recounts the humorous trysts, mishaps, and serendipitous success she's found as a life-long reveler in all things indulgent. From illicit high school trips to Tijuana and awkward dates set up by her overzealous costars, Good Time Girl is a charming and intimate meditation on community, love, independence, womanhood, and--most importantly--second chances.
