Lisa Bandit
Written - sort of - by Lisa Bandit herself. They call me a myth. A mask. A problem dressed like poetry. But this book isn't about me. Not directly. It's about the people I left behind - the ones who loved me, feared me, chased me, blamed me. Each of them saw something different in me. None of them were wrong. And none of them were right. This is a collection of their stories. Sixteen voices, each sure they've captured my truth. What they didn't realize? I was capturing them the whole time. Some chapters will make you laugh. Some will make you question what's real. And a few? Well... Let's just say they weren't written with your comfort in mind. So read carefully. Because the deeper you go, the more you'll start to wonder: Was Lisa Bandit ever real? Or is she just the reflection in the glass when you think no one's watching? (I am, by the way. Watching. Always.) - Lisa BanditComplete
