But the first slice of the book effectively establishes Xoe and her friends’ daily lives – until it all changes. Roethle manages to exactly capture the teen voice, with perhaps a slightly less self-absorbed spin on events. In fact, her daily routine is very familiar – right down to the long-suffering tone Xoe adopts when discussing her classes.

Things were about to change though, because there’s a new guy in her small town, and he is anything but normal. ![]() So she was stuck going to high school, and she only had a few friends to call her own.
