Bøker av Isabella Sky Shea

Living in Pieces tells the nonfictional story of one teen's journey with depression and self-harm. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Isabella, along with many others, faced struggles with her mental health. Isabella turned to writing poems as a way to cope with her mental battle. All the poems in Living in Pieces were written throughout the course of two years when Isabella was trying to regain control of her mental health. The poems are addressed to other individuals who are also struggling with what Isabella calls the monster. The monster is the depression and the thoughts that took over Isabella's mind and body. Living in Pieces was published with the hope of giving other teens and young adults who are feeling hopeless a sense of security and acceptance. It is okay to be not okay. Asking for help is not a sign of weakness; it is a sign of strength.
