Midvale, a charming town nestled beneath a blanket of stars, was where Kara Danvers, better known as Austin to her friends and family, called home. With her big sister, Alex, and their loving mother, Eliza, by her side, Kara's life was filled with warmth and support, but it wasn't without its challenges.
Kara had battled a rare disease since childhood, but her indomitable spirit, along with Alex's protective watch, had ensured she pursued her dreams.
As the years flew by, Kara finally made her way to college, Midvale University, where she met someone who would change her life forever-Lena Luthor. Lena was on her way to becoming a neurosurgeon, and though their initial meeting had its hiccups, a genuine friendship blossomed between the two.
But life had its own plans, and a year later, Lena was forced to return to National City due to her ailing mother. She left without a word to Kara or her family, leaving behind a void that only Lena could fill.
Five long years passed, and Kara grew into a confident reporter, while Alex joined the Department of Extra-Normal Operations (DEO). A twist of fate brought Alex face-to-face with Lena once again in the bustling streets of National City. Astonishingly, their chance encounter led to Kara crossing paths with Lena once more.
WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION
There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . .
What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart.
Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about.
To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . .
When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start.
Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.
