Shining a light on mental health stigma, perfectionism and self-expression, The Words We Keep is perfect for fans of Jennifer Nivenpsquo;s All the Bright Places and Tamara Ireland Stonewsquo;s Every Last Word.
Sixteen-year-old Lily carefully hides her crippling anxiety to keep her family and her perfect fa,cedil;ade from falling apart. Especially since her older sisteresquo;s breakdown at college and subsequent stay in a mental health facility, Lily feels the pressure to be odquo;the perfect onesdquo; more than ever. But when Lily pairs up for a poetry project with a boy who has his own dark secrets, she must face the demons in her head that tell her sheesquo;s not enough.
Together, Lily and Micah spread their secret fears and words across the school as anonymous guerrilla poets. But when the project goes too far, LilyBsquo;s anxiety spirals further than ever, and she must face the only three words that can actually save her: I need help.
