Sign in for personalised guidanceThis is a serious, emotionally layered coming-of-age novel about how family difficulties, social media and friendship choices shape Taylor’s life before and after catastrophe.
Taylor escapes into social networking, is drawn towards a popular new friend, and encounters the amplified effects of triumph, humiliation and tragedy.
Taylor’s life is divided into before and after a catastrophe, and she struggles with fear, anger, despair and the search for hope after great loss.
Expect discussion of depression, alcohol, drug abuse, tragic accidents, grief, social humiliation, family friction and friendship betrayal; the alternating structure may initially feel disorientating.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: some draft conclusions still depend on unresolved evidence.
