Description
The groundbreaking and bestselling novel from queen of YA Holly Bourne, perfect for fans of Kathleen Glasgow and Amber Smith. This 10th anniversary edition features a stunning new cover and exclusive foreword from Jacqueline Wilson.
Evie just wants to be normal. She wants to stop obsessing over germs, wash her hands just once (instead of a dozen times), and maybe even kiss a boy without mentally calculating how many billions of bacteria must be on his tongue.
But being a normal teenager isn't easy when you've just been sectioned and diagnosed with OCD. And with new friends and cute-but-confusing boys in the mix, will Evie be able to keep it together...or is she about to spiral out of control?
"A brutal and brilliant takedown of how we talk about mental illness, feminism, and friendship." The Guardian
