Kind of a Big Deal by Shannon Hale

5.0

Do you ever get that 'what do I do now?' feeling when you finished a book? Because that is how I am currently feeling after these read.

I will be honest. I had slowly turned away from a lot of YA books lately, but I had to purchase this book as soon as I read the blurb. It is about Josie, a 19-year-old girl who dropped out of high school because of a star on the Broadway stage. However, dreams do not always turn into reality. Josie finds herself in a new place, as a nanny for a five-year-old girl Mia. The book follows Josie as she forms the ability to jump inside the books she is reading, helping her realise the worth that she has in her life, and to listen and support her family and friends better. Because life is not always about you. I had to read this book because is it not almost every reader's dream to jump into the reality of their favourite stories. I will admit this was the only reason I chose to read this book. However, it took no time until I was hooked on the storyline. It took me three hours to devour this book and that is the quickest I have read a book in a long time.

So if you are looking for something that is light-hearted and follows the life of a young female just trying to figure out her life through different themes of her life. You should 100% pick up this book and give it ago. There were a few twists and turns which I did not expect, so it is not as cliche as the book might make one believe.
