Sandra Mercier is twenty-three years old when she makes the deliberate decision to end her life. She lives with her flatmates Margot and Emma, hangs out with her boyfriend Matt, but no longer feels understood or enjoys the company of others, and can only find refuge in her imagination. For Sandra, every day is a struggle, a crusade to seek bliss, an endless battle to choose life and to fight off the dark thoughts that consume her. Eventually, she becomes trapped in her mental realm, the very one she created to escape her reality. The hope for a better tomorrow that never comes, and the realization that her life did not turn out the way she expected, make Sandra believe she will find happiness in death...
Until she has an encounter that changes her life.
Über den Autor / die Autorin
Sandra Meunier was born and raised in Montpellier, a
coastal city located in the South of France. She learnt how to
speak English on her own when she was about thirteen years
old, by watching American TV shows, and by memorising
the lyrics to her favourite songs. She quickly became
passionate about the language and decided to pursue her
studies in England, where she completed a master's degree
in human rights and international relations at the University
of Roehampton, in South-West London. She later came back
to her native country and settled in the city of Lyon, where
she started writing A Reason to Live in 2021, during the
COVID-19 pandemic.
