About the book

Lottie Person is a fashion blogger in Los Angeles who projects a flawless online identity while struggling with severe allergies and social anxiety. In this second volume, her curated life unravels further as she navigates a potential murder mystery involving her friend Caroline. Lottie faces the superficiality of the influencer industry, dealing with fair-weather friends, intrusive rivals, and the pressure of maintaining a brand. The narrative follows her through high-end parties and awkward dates where her internal insecurities constantly collide with her polished exterior.

Readers interested in the intersection of social media aesthetics and mental health will find a cynical look at digital fame. Those who follow indie comics and fashion illustration read this for the detailed costume design and the satire of millennial culture. The book provides a look at how digital personas mask personal dysfunction. A reader finishes the volume with a perspective on the disconnect between curated internet profiles and the messy, physical reality of the people who create them.
