Without Merit

Colleen Hoover

A standalone contemporary novel about Merit Voss, a teenager living with her eccentric, secret-laden family in a converted church, who collects trophies she never earned as a coping mechanism. When she falls for a boy connected to her twin sister, buried family lies and her own undiagnosed depression come to a head. The story is ultimately about a fractured family confronting painful truths and beginning the slow work of healing together.
