Was, wenn wir genug sind?
Poetischer Schrei nach HilfeIn Lilys Kopf sammeln sich die Worte, die sie nicht sagen kann. Worte über die Nacht der blutigen Badfliesen. Worte über ihre psychisch kranke Schwester. Aber auch die Worte über ihre eigenen Gefühle und Sorgen. Während ihre Probleme so immer mehr zu ausgewachsenen Monstern in ihrem Kopf werden, wächst der Druck auf sie. Um ein Stipendium zu bekommen, muss sie gemeinsam mit Micah ein Kunstprojekt anfertigen. Doch kein Gedanke und kein Vers will auf das Blatt wandern. Micah verspricht ihr Hilfe - aber kann sie jemand aus ihrer Abwärtsspirale retten, der selbst mit seinen eigenen Monstern kämpft?*Trigger-Warnung*Schonungslos ehrlich beschreibt "Was, wenn wir genug sind?" nicht nur das Innenleben seiner komplexen Protagonistin Lily, sondern auch die Selbstzerstörung, die ihre Zweifel und Ängste in ihr auslösen. Selbstverletzung, Depressionen und suizidale Gedanken werden eindringlich thematisiert, so dass dieses Buch noch lange nachhallt und zum Nachdenken anregt. Auch der Suizidversuch ihrer bipolaren Schwester Alice, dessen Auswirkungen auf die Familie sowie das Stigma, das Mental Health Themen begleitet, wird Leser*innen nachhaltig beschäftigen. <BR>
