Synopsis
When one of their friends mysteriously disappears, a group of teens are forced to confront the challenges and secrets of their lives in this edgy and suspenseful coming-of-age tale from international supermodel, actress, and social media darling Cara Delevingne.
Among the students of Thames Comprehensive, Red, Leo, Rose, and Naomi are misfits-outsiders who have found a safe haven in music and their band, Mirror, Mirror. For these sixteen year olds, fitting in at school is nearly as difficult as navigating their complicated home lives. Red has an alcoholic mother and a father who's never around. Leo's brother is in prison. Rose uses sex and alcohol to numb the pain of a brutal attack. Naomi's punk rock princess persona gives her the freedom to be her true self. When Naomi mysteriously vanishes and then is found unconscious, her friends are shaken and confused. Could it have been an accident-or did someone deliberately try to hurt Naomi? If she was in trouble, why didn't she turn to them? How well do they really know their bandmate-and each other? If Naomi wakes up from her coma, will she ever be the same?.
To understand what happened to Naomi, Red, Leo, and Rose must ultimately face their own dark secrets and fears, and reconcile the difference between what they feel inside and what they show to the world. Cara Delevingne reveals another facet of her amazing talent with this powerful novel about identity, sexuality, gender, emotional pain, the complicated world of social media, and the dangerous weight of appearances that are not what they seem.
Quizá no soy la buena persona que creía ser. Quizá al final soy un monstruo. Red, Leo, Rose y Naomi son unos inadaptados. Red vive con su madre alcohólica y un padre casi siempre ausente. El hermano de Leo lo está arrastrando por un camino oscuro y violento. Rose alterna chicos y alcohol para anestesiar el dolor que siente por su pasado. Naomi escapa de casa para encontrar la libertad que necesita. Estan solos frente al mundo, hasta que forman su propia familia con su banda Mirror, Mirror: el único lugar en el que pueden ser ellos mismos. De pronto, Naomi desaparece y es hallada casi muerta a orillas del Tamesis. Aunque parece que lucha por mantenerse viva, la policía cree que fue ella misma quien intentó suicidarse. Sus amigos están destrozados: si deben cuidarse mutuamente, por que no percibieron los signos de alarma? Realmente conocen a Naomi... y a sí mismos? Una serie de pistas lleva al grupo a sospechar que nada es lo que parece. Red, Leo y Rose deben enfrentarse a sus propios secretos y miedos. Será un viaje que pulverizara sus vidas, y nada volverá a ser lo mismo, porque cuando un espejo se rompe, ya nunca puede recomponerse. El impresionante debut literario de la actriz y modelo internacional Cara Delevingne: una poderosa novela sobre la amistad, la propia identidad y las apariencias engañosas. Cuando la amistad y las apariencias se pierden por una verdad.
