Description
Someone Borrowed, Someone Blue is told entirely through emails—every message dated and timestamped, giving readers an authentic, voyeuristic glimpse into a relationship that becomes a lifeline. There’s no sugar-coating here, no neat resolutions wrapped in platitudes. Just two women, their words on a screen, and the brutal honesty that comes when you have nothing left to lose.
As you eavesdrop on Mikki and Krystal’s conversation, you may find something unexpected: the missing piece of your own story, the permission to speak your truth, or the strength you didn’t know you were borrowing from someone else’s journey.
