pickCarlotta Mercedes needs to hold her shit together, no matter what. Even though life hasn‘t been kind to her, nothing is gonna keep her down.

Cinfhen Yay @Jess !!!!! I hope you love it as much as I did. Like @sarahbarnes said heartbreaking & hopeful!! It takes a few minutes to get comfortable with the tone and the constant switching from third person/ first person pov but once you get going it‘s a wild ride. 1y
