I Must Belong Somewhere
A daring but necessary insight into themes of longing, home, bullying, loneliness, and mental health, I Must Belong Somewhere is a silver lining for anyone struggling.
With her third poetry collection, I Must Belong Somewhere, acclaimed writer Dawn Lanuza is returning to her most popular literary platform. Written during her year of rest and travel, this new collection speaks to the indescribable feelings of displacement and longing for the companionship she left behind.

With its modern, global perspective, I Must Belong Somewhere is sure to resonate with a wide array of readers.

How to Fail at Flirting
Let a guy buy her a drink: tick
Try something new: tick
Hook-up with someone: . . . not quite
For one night only, Naya’s friends convince her to shed her frumpy cardigan for an evening on the town. For once, she’ll forget about her demanding job and, with the help of her new to-do list, practice flirting with a charming stranger . . .

But the best things in life are never easy, and the complicated strings around dating Jake might just destroy her career. Naya has two options: she can protect her professional reputation and return to her old life, or she can flirt with the unknown and stay with the person who makes her feel like she’s finally living again . . .
