Synopsis
(girl + boy) ÷ heartbreak2 + surprises = a rom-com in real lifeWhile tying the bows on her wedding invitations, Kiersten&’s fiancé walked in and told her he didn&’t think he loved her, and maybe never had…. Oh, and he&’d cheated. At a place called The Magic Castle. Because what&’s hotter than aging celebrities performing magic in a fake castle in the Hollywood Hills? But don&’t worry, because six months later, while Kiersten was struggling to pay rent, he won $100,000 on a reality show. Yes, you read that right…. A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. Why is it that the minute you get your heart broken, whether by a boy or a dream (or if you&’re Kiersten, every single life plan she&’s ever made), you look around to see everyone else is doing amazing! Everyone&’s life is perfect! Because everyone else is stupid…. Oh, and why are they always telling you &“everything happens for a reason&”?! Your family, your friends, that checkout lady eyeing the three pints of non-dairy ice cream you&’re buying? Leave me alone, Cheryl! But also, don&’t. Because when you&’re alone, you&’re hit with the reality that you can&’t wake up from this bad dream. Also, why is everybody looking at you like that? Equal parts pity and confusion, like they&’ve never been rejected before. Why are you the only one heartbroken? The only one struggling? The only one… Crushed? But what if that&’s the stupid part? The lie that you are the only one. In this nostalgic memoir equally cut with anguish and humor, Lyons invites readers along on a lifetime of Crushed moments and the hope of being left in awe of the pivots she never wanted in the first place. And what if realizing you aren&’t alone is the first step to one day knowing you&’ll be in awe too? *** &“Kiersten Lyons is the voice of a generation.
