She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s almost off her meds and at a new college where no one knows her as the girl-who-went-crazy. She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s even going to parties and making friends. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s only one thing left to tick off her list&#8230;. But relationships are messy- especially relationships with teenage guys. They can make any girl feel like they are going mad. And if Evie can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even tell her new friends Amber and Lottie the truth about herself, how will she cope when she falls in love?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is such a wonderful book. I also think that this book is very important. It deals with so much, the confusing aspects of being young, having anxiety and the idea of \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcbeing normal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122. Holly Bourne has made this book so relatable. Despite the overall theme of the book, with some humor. It also helps that Bourne is a great writer and she makes you want to read more. It is an excellent book that I believe that everyone should read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Available to borrow on Bolinda Borrowbox books <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/fe.bolindadigital.com\/wldcs_bol_fo\/b2i\/productDetail.html?productId=EPD_251961&amp;fromPage=1&amp;b2bSite=4821\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> or feel free to request online from your local library <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/librariesireland.iii.com\/iii\/encore\/?lang=eng\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> or make an appointment to visit your library <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kildare.ie\/Library\/OnlineBookingSystem\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authur: Holly Bourne Genre: Young Adult Reviewed by: Aoife Kerr, Leixlip Library All Evie wants is to be normal.
