This past year has quite literally been one of the hardest; from moving states to starting high school, I constantly doubted if this story was even worth telling - or if I was just wasting time. The imposter syndrome was REAL. But I pushed through, continuously reminding myself that this needed to exist in order for it to be a comfort book and have an impact on people. I gave it my all, sprinkling pieces of myself in every character, and almost breaking my brain to decode the plot twists.
If you're able to buy it, I'd really appreciate it. You can find it on Amazon for paperback (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DTPDTXWH) and ebook (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DKXLZMW2) as well as Barnes and Noble for paperback only (https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-...) . If not, adding it to your to-read shelf also helps me out a lot. I genuinely hope you all enjoy <33 Thank you so much in advance!
