OMG UR a Teenager is a coming-of-age novel for the Me-Too generation. Full of Gen Z angst and humor and heart, it's a revision of the classic story to highlight personal growth in a more feminist age.
WAYNESVILLE, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Book Description:
Poised on the brink of becoming a teenager, Kat Cruz rides waves of excitement and worry. Life's possibilities are on the horizon: her first bra, perhaps a boyfriend, maybe a job as a journalist. It all seems so close but just out of reach, until her family moves to a ramshackle fixer-upper and Kat meets the neighbor's son, Will Morris. Despite the sad state of the house and a rash of burglaries in the area, one look into Will's golden-brown eyes makes Kat think that perhaps the move won't be so bad.
Kat relies on her best friend Jen to help her navigate their new adolescent world, including surviving her little brother Max's superhero antics and catching Will's attention. Kat's parents are distracted by their floundering gym business and her grandmother's advancing Alzheimer's, leaving Kat to fend for herself against school bully Maria. Then Kat's editorials in the school paper offend Will's mother. Worse, her dance at the school talent show shocks her, and she turns her frosty back on the entire Cruz family. With life unraveling at the seams, Kat must grow more quickly than expected—and in more ways than simply filling out a bra.
