<strong>'Raw, provocative, chaotic, and - dare I say - slutty' COLLEEN HOOVER</strong><p><strong>A thrilling memoir by <em>The White Lotus</em>and <em>Euphoria</em>actor, Lukas Gage, which chronicles his upbringing in a broken family, struggles with borderline personality disorder and his commitment to always being the centre of attention.</strong></p><p>Lukas Gage was having one of the shittiest weeks of his life. His beloved grandmother was dying, and Lukas was sitting next to his father - a man who had been mostly absent in his son's childhood, except when talking to Lukas about tits. They were also across the street from a building where, months prior, Lukas had to grapple with the dissolution of his marriage.</p><p>Naturally, Lukas did the smartest thing anyone can do in a crisis: doomscroll to see what random people on the internet were saying about him. People were calling him an attention whore - and they were right. As a toddler, he set his room on fire. As a child, he flirted with women at Hooters. As a teen, he fell hopelessly in love with a girl who wore an ankle monitor. And as an adult, he became an actor and filmed <em>that</em> scene in <em>The</em><em>White Lotus</em> (if you know, you know). Lukas was scared of attention and yet he craved it more than anything in the world.</p><p><em>I Wrote This for Attention</em> is an exquisite memoir that details Lukas' coming of age in the haunting underbelly of San Diego. Capturing universal anxieties - of transitioning from innocence to adulthood, of feeling too much and nothing at all, of sex and death, of fame and familial strife - this book is a remarkable achievement of healing, vaping through therapy sessions and having the courage to forgive the family that hurt you.</p>
