Book Trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZZFjaPyguU Anna has always been so level-headed, so easy-going, so talented and funny. How could anyone have guessed she wanted to die? Anna is not like other people. For one thing, she's been an accomplished artist since she was a preschooler. For another, she's always felt like she didn't belong: not with other kids, not with her family, not in her body. It isn't until her grandparents are killed in a tragic accident, however, that Anna starts to feel untethered. She begins to wonder what it would be like if she didn't exist and the thought of escaping the aimless drifting is the only thing that brings her comfort. It isn't until Anna overdoses on prescription pain killers that the doctors realize she has been suffering from depression and find a way to help her out of the desperate black hole she never thought she would escape. That's when rock bottom comes into sight and the journey back to normal begins. Detached is a contemporary young adult novel that explores the realities of teenage suicide using three first-person narrative voices. Through these contrasting points of view, the reader comes to understand how depression taints even the simplest human interactions, and how different people can interpret the same scenario in two vastly different ways. This novel will be released in August 2016.
