Book description
'Magnificent ... I recommend highly' Marian Keyes

Why read it?
1 author picked Like Other Girls as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a lovely and well-written young adult book of a girl who explores her sexuality and faces the many challenges of being a teenager in modern Ireland.
There are no holds barred in the telling of some of the incidents, and the protagonist Lauren ends up facing every teenage girl’s worst nightmare. Acceptance of difference is a strong theme through the novel and recent Irish referendums on Equal (Same Sex) marriage and legislation to legalise abortion in Ireland are seen from a young person’s valuable point of view.
From Philippa's list on our lives in public: personal stories and memoirs.
