I am good and other lies

Kelsey Kendler just wants to earn some money for university, hang out with friends, and maybe even find a boyfriend. But her pill-popping mom and distant dad scare off anybody she tries to bring home. Her part-time ice cream shop job's a slog, but at least there she can escape her parents' constant fighting... until the COVID-19 pandemic forces a lockdown and she finds herself isolated at home with them. As the lockdown takes its toll on Kelsey's mental health, she starts to see the appeal of her mom's pills. She hates what they do to her mom, but numbing herself to the world seems like a pretty good idea right about now. Horrified to find herself following in her mom's footsteps, she tries to find another way to cope.

Canadian fiction.
