Seven Kinds of Ordinary Catastrophes


Family, friends, future plans. A job, heartbreak and boys. These all might seem like only a drop in the bucket when you look at everything going on in the world. But when you are in high school, like Gert, those little things are suddenly magnified.

 

Gert has a boyfriend she doesn’t actually like and a crush on someone else. Throw an enemy, a totally annoying mom, a friend who started dating and has now stopped paying a ton of attention to her and future college plans into the mix and, gosh, it’s a bit crazy.

 

To top it all off, Gert has a very funny, sarcastic way of looking at life that is refreshingly real. Between her rants, raves and little white lies, Seven Kinds of Ordinary Catastrophes by Amber Kizer (available now) will have you quaking at the sides from laughter while smiling to yourself about all of the wonderful, relatable things that come with the territory of being a teen.
