Description

Alex Wilde feels like her life is going nowhere. Stuck in a dead-end job and with a relationship history that's left her feeling wiser but not much wittier, she can't help but compare herself to those around her. Her sister Gail has the good genes, Keisha is an ice-cool man-magnet, and Bronwen is so hip it hurts. Feeling inadequate in this competitive environment, Alex must decide whether to retreat or face the world head on. With no easy options available, Alex chooses to up her game if she wants to stay in it. This thought-provoking novel explores themes of self-discovery, relationships, and finding one's place in the world. As Alex navigates her way through a series of challenges, she must confront her own flaws and weaknesses. A witty and engaging read, this book is perfect for anyone looking for a relatable and entertaining story about growing up and finding your identity.
