Sixteen-year-old Mira Durand has just been checked into the Residency Adolescent Treatment Centre for obsessive compulsive and comorbid disorders. Four years of being passed around different psych wards like a hot potato have only worsened her OCD and anorexia. Her brutal, religious compulsions, which she believes keep her mom safe, make her less of a clean freak and more of a freak freak. No wonder her only friend is her journal. At the Residency's Ward Two, Mira discovers that her shrink is a fellow fantasy nerd and that her wardmates have enough of their own high-risk behaviours to tolerate hers. The complex friendships she forms with them, including a first love, the slow trust she builds with her treatment team, and the outside and family visits she earns give her things to look forward to beyond the drudgery of her compulsions. But it takes visiting Gung-Gung, her dying maternal grandfather, for her to realize that to truly live, she must fight the cognitive distortions at the heart of her compulsions."--cProvided by publisher. 0aObsessive-compulsive disorder - Fiction.vFiction. 0aAnorexia - Fiction.926828 0aMental illness - Fiction.926829 7aNovels.2lcgft922644  2lcc  00102lcc4070aTBSbTBSd2026-03-06l0r2026-03-06t1w2026-03-06y1zSOON AVAILABLE  c5393d5393
