Every one of us feels these emotions: loneliness, anger, envy, jealousy, happiness, joy, fear.
Every one of us expresses them in different ways: some show them the second they appear, some reveal them only to people they trust, some don't show them at all.
But some write them down.
One of them is Emma - a sixteen year old girl. To the world she is ordinary, nobody special, but her diary knows the real her - the crazy, over-imaginative, wounded, shy girl.
Follow this person's life inside of her entries and understand why you can never judge a book by its cover.

A little bit of information for the curious
This is my first book. I have printed copies at my house. This book was born in a project, called Personal Project. We, my classmates and I, had to pick a subject and create a product. It could have been anything! Some made beauty products, some did experiments, looked for data, and even constructed bicycles. I chose English and chose to write a short-story about the way art helps heal depression. I used my own experience and added my own pictures and drawings. I hope You will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it :)

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . .
*****
After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
