Description
Reuben Fletcher is barely holding himself together. Between university pressure, a family that doesn’t fully understand him, and the secret he is terrified to say out loud, life has become something to endure rather than live.
Haunted by what might happen and burdened by his secret, Reuben is trying his hardest to cope. With him sharing sanctuary spaces with his close friend Ava around town, the two have places to relieve stress, where no one can find them.
When Ava’s own pain proves deeper than anyone knew, Reuben is left with grief, guilt, and the impossible question of whether he got caught up in his own spirals too much to notice. Remember, it’s just in your head is a tender contemporary novel about friendship, loss, self-forgiveness, and making sure that anxiety isn’t something that defines you.
“Photography isn’t about capturing perfect moments. It’s about finding beauty in the ordinary, and turning something so plain into something special.”
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
"Remember, It’s Just in Your Head by Ben Dylan is an emotional contemporary drama that paints an all-too-real picture of student life. Dylan’s writing is remarkably grounded and cuts straight to the heart. The narrative is very similar to watching someone try to hold it together, revealing how teens can be falling apart on the inside while looking perfectly fine to the outside world. The description of Reuben’s lonely days is really well done, showing how shared grief can turn past rivals and distant peers into a warm, supportive community when life becomes too challenging to bear on your own. The story builds its pace evenly, letting comforting new bonds and support systems take shape naturally to balance the sadness of Ava’s passing. It is very sobering to see characters drop their perfect facades and just be vulnerable with each other, which makes this novel feel truly genuine. This gentle tale about processing loss and learning to forgive yourself is a nice reminder that community is everything when you are trying to heal. Recommended." — Readers' Favorite
