Through thick and thin, though, she's made it, and this year was only going to be worse.The year for relaxation is over.

Between her best friend Yunji's attempts to raise her own confidence and move on from a longtime crush; Adelina, James and his new girlfriend's not-really-love-triangle love triangle; not to mention Nadia Sorren's sudden increasing friendliness despite all the hostility last year, it's a lot of things to deal with on the year one with the most important exams of your life.But it would all work out in the end. Honoria was sure of it.

❛ DON'T YOU KNOW THAT I CRIED TEARS OF GOLD FOR YOU? ❜ Livia Wong likes to think of herself as a vacuous mess. And it's not just because of the Hamilton reference, unfortunately. A dead best friend, a band of former ex-besties, a bitchy sister and the city known as Briarville, Livia might as well be living in a Wattpad teen fiction novel. Scratch that, she probably is. But here's the problem: She's going straight back to the school all her former friends are studying at, and some of them are less forgiving than the others. Throw in the fact a few of them also happen to be the same people who backstabbed her and watched her bleed until her soul (almost) died. And these exact people are the ones who know she doesn't do second chances, so why exactly are they so hellbent on getting her forgiveness? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━-Third Place Winner of The Fiction Wars 2019 Teen Fiction-19-8-19/24-8-19: #1 in Asian…
