I just want a normal life!
Lee is fed up with her out-of-control alcoholic mother, her absent father and having to shift towns and schools whenever life gets sticky. Thank goodness for Evie, her surrogate nanna next door, Evie's house is Lee's safe haven, and her sewing machine the only way for Lee to enter the school wearable art competition - although being paired with Hinemoa, who is definitely not model material, is almost enough to stifle anybody's creative streak. Then there's Gunna, heart-stopping gorgeous Gunna, her secret crush. Lee struggles to keep up appearances, desperately hoping that one day things will be different.
A powerful debut novel from a young New Zealand writer.
