love in lowercase series #1 Hazelleana Gazel Barcelonia has spent her whole life being the girl overlooked- the shadow beside the spotlight, the secondhand sunlight. In a world quick to point out flaws, she's been told she is all of them: too quiet, too dark, too slow, too much and never enough. She's convinced herself that maybe, just maybe, she could still bloom under the same sun that warmed everyone else. But growth is quiet until it isn't. And this is her story: of breaking free from the places that kept her small, of finally speaking in a world that never listened, of learning that even shadows can leave a mark.
