I loved Holly Bourne's lively Spinster Club – Evie, Amber and Lottie, three friends facing the tough world of being a teenage girl.

In this way, these three young women very directly engage with the concept of patriarchy and the fact that society makes so much out of women being objects. While reading, I was thinking that this book aces the Bechdel test (girls taking about things other than boys).

I may be overreacting but Am I Normal Yet may be one of the best YA contemporaries I’ve read to date.

I’m going to skip over Ethan (who’s a dick) and go straight to Oli, because the scene between Evie and Oli at the end of their date is when I knew that Bourne had me hooked.No matter what, Evie was strong, nice and she inspired to keep getting better, but also to keep doing better. This gives the reader an insight into her recovery process as well as what support is available to mental health suffers. You can't help but feel for Evie, who just wants to live her life without freaking out over every little thing, the way she sees others living their lives.
