The novelization will be headed by Young Adult author Eric Smith who will work closely with Morissette and her Jagged Little Pill collaborators Glen Ballard and Diablo Cody (who wrote the book of the musical).

Jagged Little Pill: The Novel will follow the lives of five teenagers as they overcome their individual issues. After attending a party, the five lives of these teenagers intertwined when Bella, became a victim of sexual assault. The novel will show each individual’s perspective as they try to surpass the incident while figuring out who the perpetrator could be and the possibility that he gets away with it.
