Synopsis:
"It's another hospital trip in the witching hours for Sylvie, as part of the support crew for her crazy sister, Calamity Cate. An overdose, this time. As usual, it seems like the family is so caught up in all of Cate's drama that Sylvie goes unnoticed. Invisible. Always coming in second. Not anymore. After a makeover, a friendship breakdown, and a whole lot of pizza, Sylvie starts to get noticed, but by the wrong people. That's when things unravel with painful consequences. Visibility, Sylvie discovers, is not about how other people see you, but how you see yourself"--Publisher's website. First person recount.

Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures.
