It’s the middle of the night and I’m getting arrested by my dad.
Chapter one, the kids aren’t alright
Three troubled teens spending the summer at a reformatory camp located deep in the Alaskan wilderness get dragged into the decades-old mystery of a dangerous creature lurking underneath the surface of the camp’s lake.
The OG Wattpad Hit
Bea first posted “The Kids Aren’t Alright” on Wattpad in 2019. Since then, the story has received over one million reads, thousands of comments, and acclaim from readers and Wattpad staff alike. The published version has been revised for length and consistency. Never fear—it’s still the same Lightlake you remember.
Available in paperback and eBook – Summer 2026
The eBook will be available on Amazon starting July 1st. The paperback will be released later in July, and will ship internationally!
“The Kids Aren’t Alright” is available as a Kindle eBook and a paperback. The eBook can be purchased on Amazon, and the paperback is sold through the online self-publishing company IngramSpark.
Is “The Kids Aren’t Alright” available internationally?
Yes! The eBook and paperback are available in most countries. For more information about the paperback and international shipping, please go to IngramSpark’s website.
Why is the eBook only available on Amazon?
Because “The Kids Aren’t Alright” is currently enrolled in Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited program, it’s exclusive to Kindle for 90 days. However, after the 90-day period, which ends in October 2026, I’ll work to make the eBook available for purchase directly from my website and compatible with most (if not all) e-readers. Stay tuned!
When will you publish the rest of the series?
I’m currently editing the manuscript for “Kids These Days” and would love to see it published in the next year or two! Unfortunately, I don’t have a set timeline yet. The third book, “Comeback Kids”, is still a work in progress.
