A Head Full of Everything: Inspiration for Teenagers With the World on Their Mind by Gavin Oattes

emotional funny informative inspiring reflective

 Book number 27 of 2022, and it is A Head Full of Everything by Gavin Oattes. This is a book of two firsts for me for 2022: my first non-fiction book and my first YA/Teens book too! 

This is an AD-PR product. 

Thanks to @tandemcollectiveuk for letting me join in with the readalong for this book. As a mum to not one, but two teenagers I jumped at the chance to read this book and to read someone else’s understanding of teenagers and how we can only but try to support them. 

This book covers so many different topics, all relating to teenagers and the author shares lots of his own life experiences in relation to the different challenges, choices and conundrums that teenagers must face, and rather scarily they are mostly alone when they must deal with them. I loved the writing style of this book, and I found it quite comedic and satirical at times, I guess this reflects the author’s earlier career as a stand-up comedian, that he shares with us in the book. I am hoping that this writing style appeals to the target audience too. 

I have tagged my fellow readalongers, please go and check out their fantastic posts too. 

Thank you to @tandemcollectiveuk, @thiiscapstone and @gavinoattes for a gifted copy of this book.
