With surprising honesty and words that resonate long after reading, A Hurricane in My Head tackles the themes of friendship, bullying, technology and the life of a modern teenager.

While reading this book, I found myself reminiscing for the 'good old days' of going to the cinema, the joy of pulling a sickie, and the importance of BEST friends. -- Paper Lanterns lit * paperlanternslit.com *
