Grace Mendes, also known as Cinderhella, is a fierce competitor in the PFF, a roller derby-inspired pillow fight federation. In this fresh YA graphic novel, Grace must confront her biggest enemy: herself. Despite her introverted nature, Grace decides to try out for the PFF, a league of fighters with larger-than-life personas. The first and only rule of pillow fighting is that the pillow must be the first point of contact. Grace struggles with body image issues, but when she makes the competitive league, she is welcomed into the fold of close-knit, confident fighters. As her first official fight as Cinderhella approaches, Grace faces a growing battle with her insecurities. What if people laugh or make fun of her? Why did she think she could pillow fight in the first place? Turns out, no one is laughing when Cinderhella dominates her first match in the ring. As her alter-ego rises through the ranks of the PFF, gaining traction and online fame, can Grace use the spotlight to become an icon for herself? Pillow Talk is an inclusive, high-octane, and outrageously fun graphic novel that explores body image, self-confidence, and the power of self-expression.
