"Love isn't finding a perfect person, Love is finding an imperfect person, perfectly." L.S Analisa Grey has never stayed in one school long enough to just be another girl in the hallway. She's the new kid, every time. The one who slips into classrooms late, hides behind her hoodie, and pretends not to notice when people stare too long. Because they always do. They always find something to whisper about. But Analisa is more than the rumors. More than the marks she hides, or the weight of her sleepless nights. She lives in the strange blur between reality and dreams, between what's real and what her mind convinces her to fear. Some days she feels like she's floating outside her own body. Some days she wonders if anyone else notices how hard she's trying just to exist. And then someone does. The boy who laughs too loud, strolls into class like he owns the place, and somehow always gets away with it. The one who smirks when teachers roll their eyes, who shows up smelling like smoke and trouble, and who seems like the last person she should let anywhere near her. But he notices things no one else does. The way her eyes glaze over like she's somewhere else. The way her hands shake when she thinks no one's watching. The way she tries to disappear in a room full of people. He doesn't offer to fix her. He doesn't tell her to smile. He just wedges his way into her chaos-one stolen seat, one teasing remark, one lingering look at a time. Because maybe this isn't a story about being saved. Maybe it's about finding the one person who sees you when you can't even see yourself. Author here. After a few years I finally decide to pick this book back up with a whole new flip. Enjoy! The title may change once I finish the book!!
