Every Last Word is the latest novel by Tamara Ireland Stone. Every Last Word features a female lead who struggles to keep her perfect life in order and hide her debilitating OCD.

If you could read my mind, you wouldn’t be smiling.

Samantha McAllister looks just like the rest of the popular girls in her junior class. But hidden beneath the straightened hair and expertly applied makeup is a secret that her friends would never understand: Sam has Purely-Obsessional OCD and is consumed by a stream of dark thoughts and worries that she can’t turn off.

Sam meets Caroline who isn’t like her other friends so she keeps their friendship a secret. Caroline introduces Sam to Poets Corner, a hidden room and a tight-knit group of misfits who have been ignored by the school at large. Sam is drawn to them immediately, especially a guitar-playing guy with a talent for verse, and starts to discover a whole new side of herself.
