God, Sex, and Rich People
Out now!
What happens when an Evangelical pastor's daughter moves from Branson, Missouri to New York City?
A collapse of identity that begins a journey of figuring out faith, fucking, and the 1%. With humor and raw honesty, God, Sex, and Rich People follows Mattie Jo as she takes off her purity ring, navigates public transportation, and tries to have good sex without hating herself. From dating her doorman, to sex with a pop star, and living with millionaires, watch Mattie Jo hilariously fumble and find her footing as she redefines her sexuality and spirituality in the city that never sleeps (and never stops sleeping around).
Readers rave about
God, Sex, and Rich People
"We were raised in the same purity culture and have learned Jesus is not who they said he was. Thank you for writing such a gut-wrenching truth for us to read. You are phenomenal."
Part memoir, part history, and part discussion she takes us on a journey to discover what we want in love and in creating a more equitable world of mutual respect. I laughed, I cried, and I recognized myself in many of these moments. This is the hallmark of great writing and great storytelling. A book to liberate us from fear and inspire us to find a deeper self respect.
Raw, relatable read written in such a fun and thought provoking way. Reveals the uncomfortable truth of growing up in the Midwest. Love this book! A must read!
