Happy Sunday! Today I am so excited to be teaming up with @blinkyabooks and @storygramtours to celebrate the release of We Were Beautiful by @heatherheplerwriter !! This is a poignant young adult novel about tragedy, forgiveness, and love. Perfect for fans of Robyn Schneider and Justina Chen. We Were Beautiful is the story of Mia, a teenager whose severe scars remind her of the car crash that killed her sister. When Mia is shipped off to New York City for the summer, she meets a group of friends who understand her grief and guilt, and who just may be able to help her find a new beginning. Check out the full synopsis below! .

The doctors tell her she was lucky to survive. Her therapist says it will take time to heal. The police reports claim there were trace amounts of alcohol in her bloodstream. But no matter how much she tries to reconstruct the events of that fateful night, Mia's memory is spotty at best. She's left with accusations, rumors, and guilt so powerful it could consume her. . As the rest of Mia's family struggles with their own grief, Mia is sent to New York City to spend the summer with a grandmother she's never met. All Mia wants to do is hide from the world, but instead she's stuck with a summer job in the bustling kitchens of the cafe down the street. There she meets Fig--blue-haired, friendly, and vivacious--who takes Mia under her wing. As Mia gets to know Fig and her friends--including Cooper, the artistic boy who is always on Mia's mind--she realizes that she's not the only one with a painful past. . Over the summer, Mia begins to learn that redemption isn't as impossible as she once thought, but her scars inside run deep and aren't nearly so simple to heal ... especially when Mia finally pieces together her memories of the night Rachel died. #WeWereBeautifulTour #HeatherHepler #WeWereBeautiful #BlinkYABooks #storygramtours #yabooks #ireadya #bookaesthetic #bibliophile https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv9IKcVFIja/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14f0krwwqpu56
