She also wants recognition for her art, the love that we all deserve, and a pathway that is all her own. Mostly she wants to enter Prism, an art college. When her rejection letter comes in the air, Kiko's dreams are shattered and she needs figure out what is next.

This is a book about mental illness and beauty. It is about finding one's way in the world. The story starts a little slowly, but this is one you will want to stick with.
