"Locascio's story of a young American abroad is unflinching in its portrayal of sex, desire, racism, and the excitement and confusion of youth. Infused with erotics and politics, this is a novel that will haunt you."--Viet Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sympathizer

Roxana Olsen has always dreamed of going to Paris, and after high school graduation finally plans to travel there on a study abroad program--a welcome reprieve from the bruising fallout of her parents' divorce. But a logistical mix-up brings Roxana to Copenhagen instead, where she's picked up at the airport by S ren, a twenty-eight year old guide who is meant to be her steward. Instantly drawn to one another, Roxana and S ren's relationship turns romantic, and when he asks Roxana to accompany him to a small coastal town for the rest of the summer, she doesn't hesitate to accept. There, Roxana's world narrows and expands as she experiences fantasy, ritual, and the pleasures of her body, a thrilling realm of erotic and domestic bliss. Seduced by this newfound connection, Roxana doesn't object when S ren requests that she spend her days alone in the apartment while he goes to the library to work.

As their relationship deepens, S ren's temperament darkens, and Roxana finds herself increasingly drawn to a local outsider, Zlatan, whom she learns is a Muslim refugee from the Bosnian War. The cycle of awakenings sparked by these two relationships challenge and open Roxana in ways she never imagined.

A coming-of-age like no other, from a magnetic new voice in fiction, Open Me is a daringly original and darkly compelling portrait of a young woman discovering her power, her sex, and her voice; and a propulsive exploration of estrangement and what it means to belong.

So moisturizing
Color: Rose
I love this lip gloss. It is so moisturizing and such a pretty gloss. I don't find it to be very plumping, but it is very hydrating. I love that it's giving me SPF at the same time. I keep one in my purse, one in my car, and one in my swim bag.

Beautiful color
Color: Rose
This lip shine is a beautiful color with just the right amount of shine. I wanted something for everyday wear that was moisturizing with a little color and this met my expectations. As most all lip shines, it has to be reapplied frequently.
