So why does she keep using and engaging in other self-destructive behavior? Camila's Colombian-American family doesn't have much, but she knows exactly what she wants out of life and works her ass off to get it. So why does she keep failing, and why does she self-harm every time she does? When Dani and Camila find themselves rooming together at Peach Tree Hills, a treatment facility in beautiful rural Georgia, they initially think they'll never get alongâ??and they'll never get better. But then they find a mysterious music box filled with letters from a former resident of PTH, and together they set out to solve the mystery of who this girl was . . . and who she's become. The investigation will bring them together, and what they find at the end might just bring them hope. From award-winning author Stephanie Kuehn comes a breathtaking tale of friendship and healing.

I like that the author is a psychologist (a Black psychologist, even!) so you know Dani and Camila have been created by someone who knows something about the struggles they go through. The story stalls some in the middle though--Dani is too angry at everything to be much fun (which is fair, and probably realistic, but not great for moving the plot along. The supposed interesting mystery that opens the book as a teaser doesn't come back into play until p. 225., and it turns out not to be a huge part of the story (though it does mark a sort of turning point).
I think (hope) this could really resonate with and help someone won has dealt with similar issues -- or who knows someone else who has. ( )
