Hilarious, heartfelt, and totally ’80s, this is the story of one girl’s awkward, awesome, unforgettable fight to find her place in the world.A blast from the past for Gen X and anyone who lived through the ’80s; a woman looks back on the pivotal year she ditched weird for normal.In 1981, quirky teen Guinevere is trying to rebrand. New year, new her. Less weird, more cheer. But life stays messy. As she faces rejections, befriends misfits, and clashes with her eccentric parents, she finds hard-fought self-acceptance through friendship, faith, and pom-poms.Guinevere is sick to death of being weird. She wants to be nice. She wants to be normal. She wants the aptly named Matt Madewell to ask her to the dance. After reinventions and misadventures, she’s on the cusp of being accepted by the girls whose names in in Y. But what does she gain if she earns a seat at the hallowed cafeteria table of normalcy but leaves her old friends-and herself-behind? Sharp, funny, and painfully real, Guinevere MacKenzie Is Not a Nice Girl is a hilarious, heartfelt coming-of-age tale packed with nostalgic ’80s charm, pitch-perfect voice, and a heroine you won’t forget.Perfect for fans of Judy Blume, Lady Bird, Derry Girls, Harriet the Spy, and anyone who ever felt like the odd girl out.'I cast my line into the lake of memory, murky from mud stirred up as I wade through it, and I pull out a whopper: the spring I turned fourteen, was sick to death of being weird, heard a call from the Lord, and decided to change my fate.'
