Mangata Jadesola Omole

A vile intuition. A prayer unanswered. A wretched fate. Jayla and Eleanor. Eleanor and Jayla. Thirteen, soul sisters and avid John Green readers. Living in a small town, they were grateful for everything. Life wasn't perfect, but it was good. But when least expected, unsought ripples birthed in their lives. And they were nothing like the ones on the lake where they'd made the sweetest memories. They rushed headfirst into complete darkness. Into things that just could not be changed. Jayla is stuck in a loop. A song with no beat, no melody, no emotions, being played on repeat forever. With an aching heart and eyes that don't remember how to shed tears, she stands in the middle of nowhere. All the sorrow, anger, remorse and pity is sheathed in numbness. She is lost, and the only way to be found is to drown in the waters of acceptance. Mångata is Jayla's journey through a tunnel of nothingness to find herself in ways unimaginable. It will leave a mark on your heart that lasts long after the final page.
