Be Normal Book Review

Book: Be Normal

 

Author: Brittany Nicole Sanford

 

Given by: Author via Goodreads Giveaways

 

Rating: 2/5 Won-derfuls (It was okay)

 

This is a book with tons of potential. It has a solid idea but needs a good edit and some reworking. I was also a bit bothered by the message of the book not seeming to match the conclusion. It caused some cognitive dissonance that I do not believe was intentional. Rather than being challenging or causing thought it was just kind of confusing.

 

That said, there are some very interesting characters and relationships. There were several times that I wanted to scream at a few of the "teachers" because they were so good at being awful. Emotions were complicated and diverse throughout. The setting of a boarding school to teach kids how to be "normal" was unique for modern times.

 

My recommendation would be to wait until a more polished edition of this book comes out before reading it.
