L. E.

This suggests L. E. Get wrote Unicorn with a purpose: to resonate with families and friends of addicts, offering a raw, emotional look at a common yet isolating struggle.
Review :
Addiction's impact on families is indeed heartbreaking-it's a ripple effect that touches everyone, often leaving them feeling isolated and powerless. Unicorn is a gift to those families to see their struggles reflected with such empathy, giving them a sense that they're not alone.
Written in a raw, journal-like tone, the novel delves into Scarlet's inner turmoil, offering an intimate look at the stark realities faced by those connected to addicts. It's a story crafted with empathy to reach family and friends of alcoholics and addicts, shedding light on the loneliness and frustration they endure.
That message, "You are not alone," is a lifeline for people who might be drowning in silence, ashamed or unsure how to cope. It's like you're holding up a mirror to their pain and then handing them a thread of connection.
