A Girl in One Room

The eagerly anticipated sequel to the number-one bestselling, prize-winning true story A Girl Behind Dark Glasses, this powerful continuation of Jessica Taylor-Bearman’s journey gives voice to the ongoing battle against the M.E. monster, a struggle shared by millions of people worldwide living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.

What happened next for Jessica, who spent four formative years growing from teenager to young adult confined to a hospital bed? Since the publication of her first book in 2018, her life has been filled with unexpected turns, from heartbreaking challenges to extraordinary milestones.

Jessica is now an author, wife, and mother. Her blog, The World of One Room, has grown in popularity, she has celebrated her first wedding anniversary with her husband Samuel, and she has welcomed a daughter, Felicity. Through her charity, Share A Star, she continues to support and inspire others.

A Girl Behind Dark Glasses achieved bestseller status, helped open conversations about M.E., and raised awareness of this widely misunderstood condition. In July 2020, it won the Non-Fiction Award at The People's Book Prize.

Now, the next chapter of Jessica’s journey begins.
