I was recommended this audio book by one of our lovely students. I had struggled to get into I Was Born For This so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I liked the narrator of the audiobook so that helped a lot. I think Alice Oseman understands the emotional confusion and difficulties of being a teenager quite well and I think it's a good thing that she doesn't shy away from featuring some relatively heavy topics that young people will inevitably come into contact with.
