An "engrossing affecting and singular" ( Publishers Weekly ) debut novel about love family queerness and losing your mind in the modern world. While god is sending her signs through Instagram and Spotify demanding she break up with her girlfriend Norma meets with a new therapist for one reason: she really needs to write again. With only one chapter missing in her manuscript Norma is desperate to know if she needs to leave her girlfriend in order to write The Last Story. The new therapist diagnoses Norma with Depersonalization Derealization Disorder but Norma isn’t having it. It’s just Oblivion. Haunted by SSRI side effects and life becoming less hazily fictional by the day Norma has never felt crazier. Does anyone else see the world’s poorly crafted plotline? Like who even wrote this story? Norma begins sharing her manuscript with her therapist hoping to connect the dissociative dots once and for all—or at least enough so that Google ads stop giving her panic attacks. But soon Norma is questioning everything she’s ever believed about life writing and love.  And then there’s Norma’s girlfriend the one with a crack of light in her eyes. Could she be Oblivion’s antagonist the manuscript’s savior? Or is she just a human?  Told alternately through Norma's barely fictional fiction and her crackling stream of consciousness Please Stop Trying To Leave Me is an honest comedic horrifying and heart-wrenching story about existing in today’s world challenging all we’ve been taught about the distance between fiction and reality sanity and insanity mental illness and healing.
