Against her mother’s wishes, Abby Martins drops out of university to follow her dream: share her travel stories with the world.
With over 90 000 followers and her sister’s help, a talented photographer and her forever best friend, Abby’s thriving on this new path. She’s managing her anxiety (for the most part) and she’s (almost) making a living out of her passion.
Winning a prestigious travel influencer award might just be the thing to push her off that ledge.
Desperate to prove herself, Abby steps out of her comfort zone. From Scotland to Italy, from unexpected influencer trips to thrilling collaborations, Abby stretches herself and her own mental health thin for the likes.
But what, and most importantly, who, will she risk to lose on her way?
“Us Against the Likes thoughtfully explores the intersection of social anxiety and social media influence while taking readers on a whirlwind trip around the world.”
“Heartfelt and real, Voinson’s debut renders mental health and the pressures of social media with depth and richness and captures joyfully the wonder of journeying the world and finding the people who feel like home. We found everything to love in Us Against the Likes.”
