Official synopsis Publisher
The latest heartwarming and feel-good novel from Rebecca Ryan – THE NEXT CHAPTER – is available to order now
‘I absolutely loved this book!’ SARAH TURNER (The Unmumsy Mum)
Have you ever wondered how normal you are?
What if you were perfectly average?
More than anyone else.
For Emily – it’s true. When she watches a documentary on the average human she sees her life. Her job, her hair, her favourite food. All of her – plainly, horrifically average. Even her blood group. Right there and then, she decides she wants more.
She’ll travel the world (i.e. venture out of her hometown)
She’ll become a vegan (it’s interesting to hate cheese, right?)
She’ll do something daring (As long as it’s safety tested)
Nothing will stand in the way of Emily living her best life. Not even Josh and his dimples. Because she absolutely can’t fall in love . . . that would be too ordinary.
And from now on, Emily is going to be extraordinary.
