When Life Finally Makes Sense (Things I Wish Someone Told Me at 17) There comes a moment in life when the noise fades, the dust settles, and the truth finally speaks. Not loudly. Not violently. But in a quiet, unshakable way that changes everything. This book is a collection of lessons learned at the edge of growing up - in the late-night thoughts, the mistakes I couldn't undo, the love that stayed longer than it should have, and the silence that taught louder than people ever did. It's about understanding yourself when the world doesn't. It's about losing people without losing yourself. It's about finally seeing the path you were meant to take... only after you've stumbled through the dark. If you're 15, 17, or somewhere between being young and feeling old - these pages are for you. Not to impress you. But to remind you that you're not alone, and that clarity always arrives... eventually. A book of truth, mystery, and the kind of wisdom you only learn by living.

For the first time in forever, I felt happy. I forgot about trying so hard to fake the smile, about telling myself I'm alright, I forgot about being a disappointment. I was just the same old Morgan. Whatever problems I had back in the real world were miles away, and the crushing weight ceased to exist. Evan made me feel different, he didn't look at me with pity. It was just him and I in this perfect little world. ~ ~ ~ Battling her emotions, Morgan discovers a secret. A whole world, if that. Whenever she needed to escape, this perfect little paradise let her in. When she meets Evan, the only other person she's seen here, she's comforted yet puzzled by their intimate bond they seem to share. Can they help each other sort through their mess, or will the beauty of this world consume them completely?

Frank raised a brow at his friend while he began to light his cigarette with his black lighter. Though she was younger, she's done more than he ever has. June rolled her eyes and scoffed. She took a cigarette out of the beaten Marlboro red packet in the cup holder, snatched the lighter from his lap and lit it. She knew all too well that he'd ask this question every time he came to pick her up. "Satisfied? Satisfaction is settling, being contempt with what you're given." She took a drag and puffed out a cloud of smoke, blowing circles into the air. "I don't want to be complacent, I want to be thrilled, surprised by something that I have found." • Highest rankings: #1 in myyouth #1 in freeyourbody Read if you wanna, it's different.

He only saw an anime profile picture. But behind it was a girl who would change everything. When Elijah replies to a simple message online, he expects nothing - maybe a normal conversation, maybe a new friend. Instead, he finds Alisha: honest, broken, funny, confusing, and somehow the first person who ever made his heart feel awake. Late-night voice notes. Unexpected confessions. A connection they can't explain. And a love that feels too real for two people who have never met. But when her world starts falling apart - strict family, secrets, and distance - Elijah is left asking one question: How do you hold onto someone you've never even touched... but can't imagine losing? A story of faith, online love, and the kind of bond that doesn't make sense... but refuses to disappear.
