Beneath the Skin: A Novel

SpeakÂ meetsÂ Girl in PiecesÂ in this haunting novel of trauma and resilience reviewers are calling "Heartfelt" (Nerd Girl Official) and "Important" (YA Books Central).
Â
For 18-year-old Sidney Shaw, life pretty much sucks. Her mom's a drunk. Her dad is worse. At school, she's bullied by her ex-best friend. And cutting no longer brings the relief she craves.Â

When Sidney is forced into group counseling, she meets perfect, popular Arianna, the type of girl who grieves over a broken nail. But Arianna has secrets of her own.Â Arianna might prove herself a friend--if Sidney can let her guard down. Then there's Lucas, the sweet and funny new guy who sees straight through her tough, snarky faÃ§ade.Â

But Sidney's wounds go deeper than anyone knows.Â
Â
When her secrets threaten to unravel her, Sidney must choose. How far is she willing to go to protect her family? And who can she turn to when the unthinkable happens?Â

For fans of Laurie Halse Anderson'sÂ Wintergirls, Kathleen Glasglow'sÂ Girl in Pieces, and Ellen Hopkin'sÂ Identical.Â Beneath the SkinÂ is a gut-wrenching exploration of trauma and resilience, the redemptive power of friendship, and how we piece our broken selves back together, one shard at a time.Â
