Girl Reflected in Knife - Hardcover
by Anica Mrose Rissi (Author)
"A haunting, bold portrait of a young woman whose world has reached fever pitch, whose grief has taken on a life of its own. Unputdownable and exquisitely written, Girl Reflected in Knife is chilling yet beautiful, fantastical yet all too real, as we follow one girl through the looking glass. I will be thinking about this book for a very long time to come." --Amber Smith, New York Times bestselling author of The Way I Used to Be and The Way I Am Now
Destiny can't count on anyone but herself. Her mother has struggled with addiction for all of Destiny's life, moving them from town to town, bad boyfriend to bad boyfriend--including a particularly dark period in Texas, where Destiny ended up in a psychiatric hospital. But Destiny's mother is newly sober and stable. And Destiny is falling in love. Destiny never believed in happily ever after, but that doesn't stop her confidence from fraying when the first guy she ever trusted casually shatters her heart. Spiraling hard, she tells a tiny, desperate lie to buy herself a moment of hope. But as the lie grows and the pressures tangle, she gets lost in her own deception, and the line between truth and fantasy starts to blur. With time untethered and her perception in knots, Destiny must find a way to reclaim her story and weave a new ending--before its beginnings unravel. "Be careful of the story you tell yourself. It might become the one you believe."Author Biography
