Raver Girl: Coming of Age in the 90s

-First of its kind: A female raver memoir has never been published-and the millions of Gen Xers who lived the rave years themselves are now in their late thirties and forties, a prime book-buying age category.

-On trend: People are obsessed with the ‘90s right now-an interest that’s reflected in revived fashion, music, and pop culture trends from the pre-smartphone decade.

-Timely: The psychedelic renaissance and legalized cannabis continue to gain momentum, making this book’s exploration of the various effects of these and other drugs particularly relevant. 35 US states and Canada currently have laws legalizing cannabis in some form, showing that mindsets are opening to the responsible use of plant medicine, both medically and recreationally.

-Author with connections: Samantha is an established lifestyle writer whose work has appeared in POPSUGAR, Yahoo Style, Real Simple, PureWow, Zagat, The Bold Italic, and The San Francisco Chronicle, among other publications. She is approaching her network of well-known media for promotion and blurbs, including Moshe Kasher, Lisa Sugar, Kat Odell, and more.
