Synopsis

"Dazzling..."—The New York Times

Voted by both Bustle and Nylon as a most anticipated novel of 2019, this portrait of a young teenager's fight toward understanding and recovering from mental illness is shockingly honest, funny, and heartfelt.

A highly anticipated debut—from a writer hailed as "a combination of Denis Johnson and Joan Didion" (Dazed)—brilliantly captures the intimate triumph of a girl's struggle to become the woman she knows she can be. 

Ambitious, talented fourteen-year-old honors student Juliet is poised for success at her Southern California high school. However, she soon finds herself on an increasingly frightening spiral of drug use, self-harm, and mental illness that lands her in a remote therapeutic boarding school, where she must ultimately find the inner strength to survive.
