The Finest Lies
New book alert!
Why am I passionate about this?
Anyone with siblings knows the deal. Your sibling becomes your first best friend and closest confidant but also your first competitor and fiercest critic. Navigating that relationship as a teen is fraught with peril. If done poorly, it can leave deep scars.

This theme has everything a writer needs to craft an emotional narrative, and these books do it best.
