What does it mean to truly love someone?

Someone you've secretly been in love with for six years...

Especially when that someone struggles with mental illness...

Quirky and outspoken Carrington Daughtler chose to live a writer's life in New York over a prestigious graduate degree in psychology, disappointing her mother once again despite Cari becoming a number one bestselling poet.

Needing a change of hairstyle and scenery, Cari moves to Baltimore, where she plans to complete her latest poetry collection. Unexpectedly, she reconnects with some college friends, including Abel Harpen, with whom she's been secretly in love for six years.

Gray Matter is a novel filled with humor and heartache that not only answers the question about loving someone with mental health challenges but erases the stigma surrounding them.

Industry Reviews

Gray Matter is an emotional story that goes above and beyond what I hope for in a book. With hilarious banter, a heart-wrenching theme, and strong bonds of friendship, this book made it to my favorites list within the first few chapters.

In Gray Matter, Avery Volz's vivid descriptions and immersive storytelling pull readers deep into the characters' lives, capturing the raw emotions of early adulthood.

It also delves into the power of first love, exploring what love truly means in a time of growth and self-discovery. Through its exploration of mental health, the book effectively advocates for awareness across the spectrum of suffering, offering an empathetic portrayal that resonates long after the final page.
