Sometimes I feel like everyone else was handed a copy of the rules for life and mine got lost.
Fifteen-year-old Grace is funny and plain-spoken. Just because she has Asperger's doesn't mean she's great at maths (she's not) or can draw the Eiffel Tower from memory (she can't).
Like any teenager, Grace just wants to fit in, so when it turns out that the cutest boy in school likes her, she finds herself falling in with the cool crowd. But with her dad away and her mum distracted there's no one at home to see Grace's younger sister spiralling out of control, and suddenly everything threatens to fall apart - unless Grace can fix things on her own.
Whip-smart, hilarious and unapologetically honest, The State of Grace is a heart-warming story of one girl and her totally normal teenage life. Rachael Lucas is an author, coach and freelance writer. Her bestselling debut novel Sealed with a Kiss was downloaded over 130,000 times on Kindle. She lives and works in a Victorian house by the seaside in the North-West of England with her partner (also a writer) and their children. A teenage girl with Asperger's deals with everything life throws at her - family troubles, first love and pretending to be 'normal' - in this funny, honest teen novel from bestselling author Rachael Lucas
