Description
Francesca's life at St. Sebastian's is one of awkward encounters and unrequited crushes, but when her mother falls ill with acute depression, everything changes.
The arrival of Will, the school's resident loner, sets off a chain reaction that forces Francesca to confront her own feelings and sense of identity.
This poignant and humorous story explores themes of family, friendship, and self-discovery, as Francesca navigates the challenges of adolescence with courage and resilience.
