– Beth Reekles, YA author (The Kissing Booth) That holy frick I haven’t read anything this powerful in a long while. If I could, I’d make this book obligatory reading for everyone. My first thought having finished it was ‘I wish I’d read this when I was a teenager’, but in all truth I think it’s just as valuable to have read it now.Īn involving look at feminism, friendship and the secrets we hide even from those who know us best. It manages to be enjoyable without being flippant, incisive without being preachy. If you’ve ever felt out of the ordinary, this is for you (ie everyone). The trouble is, if Evie won’t tell them her secrets, how can they stop her making a huge mistake? More books in Young Adult FictionĪ very funny and poignant look at OCD, secrets, feminism and friendship.Ī brutal and brilliant takedown of how we talk about mental illness, feminism, and friendship. And now that she’s almost off her meds and at a new college where no one knows her as the-girl-who-went-nuts, there’s only one thing left to tick off her list… But relationships can mess with anyone’s head – something Evie’s new friends Amber and Lottie know only too well.
