Influential

Almond Brown has no friends in real life . . . but 3.5 million followers online. A heart-felt; whip-smart deep dive into what it would really be like to be internet famous at 17: a cautionary tale for our time from a writer who has grown up with social media. Almond is forced into the spotlight when she was just a perfectly filtered bump: her mum has been documenting their family through social media since before she was born. And her family enjoy all the rewards that come from that level of influence. Only; it's not the life Almond would have chosen for herself; and being on a platform all the time has made her anxious and insecure. When the darkest side of the internet begins to haunt her; Almond feels like she's going to lose everything . . . If only she could see that she has a real-life; too; full of friends and family who love her; and that it could save her.
