Summary

From the outside, Amabel Doll's life looks picture-perfect. The big house. The dream family. The polished smile. But behind the painted-on happiness lies addiction, betrayal, secrets, and pain. Her dad’s having an affair. Her mom’s drowning herself in liquor. Her brother is spiraling deeper into self-destruction. And Amabel? She’s carrying it all—behind a flawless mask and a plastic smile. When a new girl at school—blunt, fearless Dahlia—calls out Amabel’s fake life, everything starts to unravel. As the lies crumble, Amabel is forced to confront the darkness in her family… and in herself. Because sometimes, pretending to be perfect is more dangerous than falling apart. How much can one girl take before she finally breaks? A raw and emotional coming-of-age novel about identity, trauma, and what it really means to be seen.

Intro

My dad’s a doctor. My mom runs a bakery. My brother’s a superstar in high school. I’m one of the popular girls that everyone knows. We’re a beautiful family. We don’t argue. We don’t fight. We go to church. We know everyone.

On paper, we’re a perfect family living in our big perfect house with money to spend on anything we want to. But nothing is as it seems.

Nothing is ever as it seems.

My dad’s cheating on my mom with a nurse. My mom has a drinking problem because she knows about his woman on the side, but can’t confront him about it. My brother goes out to get high whenever he can and is starting to get bigger with his addiction, trying stronger things each time.

And none of them realize what they’re doing.

I see things nobody else sees.
