Absolution
She survived. Now she has to live.
After nearly a year in a mental health facility, Tegan Jordi is finally free—and determined to leave the wreckage of San Ren behind. Washington is supposed to be her fresh new school, new roommates, new chances.
But healing isn’t simple. Scars don’t disappear just because the zip code changes, and ghosts don’t stay buried. With her best friend at her side and new connections pulling her out of isolation, Tegan has to figure out how to build a life worth staying for.
Absolution is the raw, emotional sequel to Affliction, perfect for readers of character-driven stories about resilience, found family, queer love, and the messy, imperfect road to recovery.

she’s on a journey
This is one of those books where our fmc is struggling to figure out what life is like when you are only responsible for yourself. This book picks up months after where book 1 ends. This book also heavily deal with mental health and the struggles that can come with it. Our fmc shows us that the journey to healing isn’t linear. She still really struggles with things in this book but she does have some wins and good things that happen along the way. We get more of her learning who she is without all of the responsibilities she previously had. Sometimes I feel like this specific fmc made the same mistakes over and over and constantly put on a facade that she was okay when others could clearly see she wasn’t. And just wanted to bury her head in the sand instead of actually facing them.
