Description

In 2005, Lucy navigates the final weeks of her senior year of high school, struggling to connect with others and desperate for a thinner body. She finds solace in the internet, using Livejournal to express herself and grapple with the concept of her "self". Through her online musings, she seeks answers about who she is when she's alone, away from the scrutiny of others. As Lucy navigates this tumultuous time, she begins to question what it means to be honest with oneself and others. Her experiences are marked by a sense of disconnection and longing for human connection, which she finds in unexpected places online. Elle Nash crafts a poignant portrait of a teenager's quest for self-identification, one that is both realistic and deeply relatable.
