[1968] Petrified Tide - Chapter One
Hi everyone, this is the first chapter of a novel I've written. It's a little heavy with the swearing and I was wondering if that's too much. With the main character being in her late teens I was wondering if you thought it was more of a YA story with too much adult language (which I can tone down).
Other questions:
What do you think of the title?
How about the first line?
Are they interesting or too pedestrian?
Does this first chapter make you want to keep reading?

Sorry that my critique is a little on the older end. Is there an expiration on how old it can be?
Edit: I guess some people were flagging me for leeching. Here is another critique I did: https://www.reddit.com/r/DestructiveReaders/comments/11r11y7/1360_unwilting/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
