About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is struggling with a fragmented sense of self, feeling like they are 'losing time,' or coping with the lingering effects of a hidden trauma. It speaks to the teen who feels like a stranger in their own skin or who is navigating the complexities of a mental health journey that others cannot see. The story follows Molly Pierce, a girl who realizes she has been losing huge chunks of her life to a second personality, leading her on a tense psychological search for the truth about her past. It is a deeply emotional exploration of identity, trust, and the resilience required to face one's own history. Parents will appreciate how it handles neurodivergence and trauma with a realistic yet hopeful lens, making it an excellent choice for mature teens (ages 14 and up) who are ready to engage with themes of self-discovery and psychological healing.
