Inhale by DeinaIsConfused

Exhale, repeat. How far will you go? Ask Julian Laurence and he will tell you he is living the dream. Despite his flaws and overwhelming anxiety, Julian has everything he needs at school. Wealthy, privately educated, and surrounded by his friends; what more can a 16 year old ask for? But behind autumn winds and the second hand smoke there is something far more sinister. Julian finds his perfectly orchestrated comfort turned inside-out as a new student arrives, and old stories return. There is only so much the human spirit can take. A slow burning story of love, grief, and mystery that follows observant Julian through his final years at school as his relationships with those around him are tested. As always, in loving memory of the real Josiah-Jean, who has breathed life into the beloved Josiah in this story.

With Love, Étienne | ✓ by softdreams_x

❝People like you don't get happy endings, not after that.❞ **** Childhood best friends Étienne LeRoy and Louella Rey were once inseparable-two halves of a perfect whole. Where Étienne was steady, Lou was wild, filling every moment with laughter and light. But that was before. Before Lou disappeared. At twenty-two, Louella has become a ghost of her former self, retreating into a world of silence and secrets after deferring her college dreams. She's mastered the art of blending into the background, hiding the pain she carries like a bruise that never fades. When Étienne returns home after a year abroad, he barely recognizes the girl he used to know. Lou's spark is gone, replaced by hollow eyes and a fragile shell of who she used to be. Haunted by the change and unwilling to give up on her, Étienne sets out to uncover the truth behind her withdrawal. But some truths are better left buried. There's something she's not telling him, something dark-something that involves the one person Étienne trusts most in the world. The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes, until Étienne is forced to confront a devastating question: How well do you really know the people you love? **There are serious themes discussed in this book. Please do NOT read if you might be triggered. Your mental health comes first before any stupid book.** Part I is complete. Part II is ongoing.
