Looking for Alibrandi by Melina Marchetta
5.0
Melina Marchetta has done it once again.
She beautifully writes the struggles of a teenager in her last year of high school, but she brings to light not just Josie's struggles, but the people she surrounds herself with. Marchetta does a wonderful job of showing the change a person goes through whether it's a family issue, a school issue, a friend issue, or a personal issue. She also does a fantastic job with Josie finding herself and realizing her faults and flaws, and coming to terms with who she is and her nationality/ethnicity.
Such a beautiful book. Marchetta is simply an amazing writer.
