10 Things I Can See From Here

A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is struggling with the paralyzing weight of 'what-if' thinking or navigating a clinical anxiety diagnosis. This raw and honest contemporary novel follows seventeen-year-old Maeve as she moves to Vancouver to live with her father, only to find herself balancing her own mental health needs with the reality of her father's drug dependency and a burgeoning first romance. It explores themes of self-advocacy, identity, and the complexity of loving someone who is struggling. This is an excellent choice for parents of older teens (14+) who want to validate their child's emotional experience while opening doors for conversations about family boundaries and mental health management. It provides a realistic, non-sugarcoated representation of living with a high-functioning but intense anxiety disorder.
