This is a world where only women exist. The good and the bad, the old and the young, the sick and the strong. They’re all there and they’re all women.

Jordi, a young woman navigating the world in her early 20s, has been sucked into the life of video games and escaping responsibility. Her great-aunt, who relies heavily on Jordi for her day-to-day care, feels the impact of Jordi’s lack of attachment to reality. When an act takes place that turns both their worlds upside down, Jordi must navigate the world of inter-dependence, self-care and the love of her friends - one of whom is suffering from the energy zapping realities of long-covid and needs more care than she is able to give. Loyalties are tested, composers are cracked, and betrayals grow as the tug between selfishness and selflessness are tested.

This book is dedicated to everyone trying to thrive in a world not built for them.
