Wonderful -you've found us.

Discretion keeps the crowd thin.

Taste keeps it thinner.

All Opal Slepecki wants is loyalty. But when her badly behaved friends refuse to kill her, it’s impossible to feel loved.

It’s been eighteen agonizing hours since she asked her friends to help her die.
And now, it’s gone quiet.

She knew the request would be jarring, awkward even, but the brash pill-popper, the shameless exhibitionist, and the quiet beauty have weathered worse. Haven’t they?

Told with biting humor, brutal honesty, and moments of absurd laughter, Why Is My Bra Still On? is a darkly comedic, deeply emotional story about love, loyalty, and what it really means to be family.

Because this isn’t just about helping a friend. It’s about who they were, who they are, and whether they have the guts to show up for one another- without conditions.

For readers who are into, wildly inappropriate female protagonists- or fans of We All Want Impossible Things, The Wedding People, and Margo's Got Money Troubles, then Why Is My Bra Still On? is for you.



*mature with some triggering content*
