More DescriptionAlice lives in Smithers, a small logging town in Canada, with her mother, father and 10-year-old brother, MacGregor. She attends the Smithers teens in transition (Not in trouble) centre, and is now up to therapist number two, Death Lord Bob. On Bob's advice 15-year-old Alice starts a journal to record her problems in. And she does have problems: she is short on friends - a total of none; her enemy, Linda, wants to kill her; her mother wants her to dress in flowing, multicoloured hippy clothes; her father writes romance novels and hangs around with a bunch of losers - sorry, geniuses; and her cousin, Frank, is a walking pharmaceutical company, who despite this does inspire Alice into great feats of fashion. In this hilarious story we follow Alice through various life experiences - most of them disasters. But Alice isn't in trouble, she's in transition. Ages 12+
