Searching for Normal is the second book in a series that travels alongside four friends as they deal with teen life in Riverbend, Indiana. The novel inspires girls and young women to deepen their relationships with God and solve their problems in God-honoring ways.
Six months ago Shay Mitchell's life changed forever. Now she's just trying to survive school bullies, drama class, and living with her Aunt Laura above the bookstore. No one, not even her new friends, knows her real story or the reason she's living with her aunt in the first place.
When Shay learns the truth about her biological father, she jumps at the chance to meet him. This could be her chance! Maybe she'll finally find the normal life she's longed for―a life where she feels loved and wanted―you know, part of a real family.

This novel felt so real. Shay feels unloved and lonely and carries burdens because she wrestles with trusting people. The characters are relatable. I like that Shay's friends are good friends, contrasting with the bullies, who try to devalue her so
I highly recommend this novel for teens. I wish there were more novels like this that bring hope to real life situations.
