Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

As life in post-lockdown Nairobi regains its rhythm, Kendi finds herself navigating a new set of pressures-academic ambition, shifting friendships, and emotions that refuse to follow any sensible plan. Chess remains her anchor, but off the board, the stakes feel more personal and far less predictable.Old relationships grow complicated just as new ones appear. Alex's distance leaves Kendi questioning what was once familiar, while Leo's sudden presence brings charm, distraction, and feelings she isn't sure she's ready to manage. With every interaction, the lines between friendship, loyalty, and attraction become harder to read.Inside Kendi's head, Kate-her sharp, ever-present inner voice-offers nonstop commentary, quick to flag emotional risk and quicker to criticize any sign of vulnerability. Kate's logic is relentless, but even she can't fully prepare Kendi for the uncertainty that comes with wanting something deeply while fearing the consequences.Caught between ambition and emotion, certainty and change, Kendi must learn how to pursue her goals without losing her sense of self. The challenge isn't only about staying focused-it's about understanding what matters when the rules keep shifting.A contemporary young adult novel filled with humor, emotional honesty, and cultural texture, Kendi: Crashes, Glitches, Meltdowns continues The Kendi Chronicles with a story about growing up, growing closer, and learning how to move forward when feelings complicate every plan.
