Kiersi Burkhart grew up a cowgirl in Colorado and can still run a mean barrel race. At sixteen, she attended a small private college in Oregon that helped to inspire Edwards Academy. Like most women, she grew up amid stories of abuse, where victims were forced into silence. Honor Code is her response to that silence - and to the insular communities that help to protect abusers and deprive victims of their voices. Now she lives and works as a freelance writer in Casper, Wyoming. While not writing and running her own business, she finds time to advocate for social justice. Keirsi has a deep and abiding love for Pokemon, her partner, and her dog, Baby. She's also got a dragon tattoo.
Reviews
Honor Code explores the harsh reality of victim shaming and how too often the very institutions designed to protect us are the ones to silence those who dare come forward. Tragic, gripping, and very important.
Feminist and furious, Honor Code will have your heart racing and your blood boiling up to the last twisty page.
Not the private school book you’ve been prepping for—Honor Code weaves a seductively dark web and then burns the whole thing to the ground. Breathless, gritty and thrilling.
An intense look at rape on campus, this social media–savvy novel is a must-read.
