The Totally True Story of Gracie Byrne
Author: Shannon Takaoka
Format: Paperback
Recommended for ages 13+
In 1987, shy sixteen-year-old Gracie Byrne struggles to fit in at a new school while coping with her parents' divorce and her grandmother's worsening Alzheimer's. When she starts writing stories about a more popular version of herself in a journal she finds, the things she writes begin coming true—and she realises she can reshape her own reality.
But as her power grows, Gracie begins to doubt what is real, especially as a romance blooms with the boy next door. A story blending friendship, family, and romance that bends the limits of reality itself.
