Luca Ponsato - Does Anyone See My Suffering

It's here! Daughter of the Bride is now available on Amazon in ebook form. Paperback is also coming in the next few days, if you prefer a paperback experience.

Hey tumblr, I wrote a book! It's about mothers, daughters, reality television, life in the public eye, and, of course, fake dating a douchebag Instagram influencer to avoid pushing anyone into a pool on camera. Excited to share some more previews in the next few days! You can also follow me on instagram at cjhousman if you want basically the same posts, but on instagram.
