***now published*** Holliday Whitehead just turned 16.  She was supposed to get a nose job for her 16th Birthday and show off her new nose on Instagram. Except she doesn't want the nose job anymore. Holliday is tired of "perfect." 

Her sister, Madge, is dead. She died seven years ago, but Holliday sees her every day.  Holliday's diary is a painfully honest coming-of-age story about a grief-stricken young girl living in a society full of "perfect."  She is hanging by a thread but nobody can tell. Her diary knows all her secrets. Sex, drugs, coding, ukulele, #metoo, death, love, and life. 

Until her mom finds her diary.

From Wattpad story to published book to a movie! Watch your favorite coming-of-age camp romance come to life on screen on August 2, 2024! After running away from her problems for four years - her inability to run a mile ironically being one of them - Whitney Carmichael knows a fitness camp will kick start some change in her life. Little does she expect her high school archenemy will be there desperately trying to make amends. Or that she'll ditch her wallflower status and find herself at the center of a web of toxic friendships and petty lies. And working out? It's not so bad when her new personal trainer, Axel, is pretty easy on the eyes...and she has everything to lose. [Wattys 2015 Talk of the Town winner]
