In a closed circle in high society, those who attend the prestigious Sesmayne Secondary are virtually untouchable. They have wealthy families, powerful connections and biting wits, yet despite all this, its students grapple with their own individual darkness.
Amrin, undoubtedly one of Sesmayne's top students in every way possible, battles with overwhelming misery and rancour towards herself, only managing through long days and nights with her loved ones hoisting her up. However, when she loses one of the pillars supporting her, Amrin's world is rattled, and pain tightens its ever choking grip on her.
As she is dragged deeper and deeper into the depths of agony, accidental deaths re-emerge as cold blooded murders, and Amrin finds herself tumbling even more into Sesmayne's underworld.

The Memoirs of Melody
This story is not real. It never happened. It is not about the girl with everything that has nothing. Or the girl whose soul pours out in music notes. Or the girl whose heart is drowning her. It is not about Melanie or Melody. She is the main character but this book is not about her. Her story ends on the last page, the last reader. This book never dies. Because this book isn't about a girl. It's not even about the things that happen to her Nor her depression Nor her death. This book is about life. Life. Love. Time. Terrible. Wonderful. Ours. Twisted. Tangled. Dark. Heart-break. Joy. Today. Tomorrow. Limited. Gone. Life. Vida. Leben. Vita. 生活. жизнь. Leven. La vie. ΖΩΗ. जिंदगी. đời sống. 생명. ชีวิต. Life. Life. Warning: This book focuses on topics like depression and suicide and may be triggering. Please be careful reading this if you are sensitive. Also, there is some bad language because it's high school and not having curse words would be unrealistic. Lastly, I'd like to make it clear that this book isn't rated because of sexual content and while there may be references and a couple of scenes, there will be nothing super explicit. The rating is purely because of the self harm scenes and references.Complete

You will definitely notice some grammar issues throughout the book. My goal is to one day do a complete revision and correct all those errors and make some changes to make the story even better. Still, I hope you enjoy! Make sure to let me know what you think! All my love, SamanthaComplete
