"Jos olet koskaan tuntenut itsesi poikkeavaksi, tämä kirja on sinulle (siis kaikille). Se onnistuu olemaan nautinnollinen muttei nenäkäs, terävä muttei paasaava." - GuardianEvie haluaa olla ennen kaikkea normaali. Hukattuaan kolme vuotta elämästään taisteluun OCD:tä vastaan hän aloittaa uudessa koulussa, jossa häntä ei tunneta "tyttönä joka sekosi" (vaan korkeintaan leffahulluna).Viimein Evie uskaltautuu myös deittailemaan. Ihmissuhteet voivat kuitenkin sotkea kenen tahansa pään, ja hän alkaa ajautua takaisin pakkomielteiden maailmaan. Mutta kuinka uudet ystävät, taiteellinen Amber ja räväkkä feministi Lottie, voisivat auttaa, kun Evie ei suostu kertomaan ongelmistaan kenellekään?Oonko ihan normaali? aloittaa Holly Bournen valloittavan älykkään ja hauskan trilogian.

Amber kaipaa edes ripausta rakkautta. Hänen äitinsä on muuttanut Kaliforniaan, mennyt uusiin naimisiin ja muuttunut ihan vieraaksi ihmiseksi. Amber toivoo kuitenkin, että pesti kesäleirin apuohjaajana äidin luona muuttaisi kaiken. Hänen pitää vain saada äitinsä irti perseleuka-Kevinin otteesta.Ja sitten on koulun suosituin poika Kyle. Hän on fiksu, hauska, PIDEMPI KUIN AMBER ja häiritsevän kiva. Voisiko hän olla muka oikeasti kiinnostunut sarkastisesta Amberista, joka on varsinainen cheerleaderin vastakohta? Ja voiko Amber uskoa olevansa rakastamisen arvoinen, kun tärkeät ihmiset hänen elämässään ovat aiheuttaneet vain pettymyksiäIhastuksesta nyt ei voi ainakaan seurata mitään hyvää, kun kaikki muukin menee aina pieleen."Olen suuri Holly Bourne -fani, ja tämä on tähänastinen suosikkini. Hän kirjoittaa todella hauskasti ja rehellisesti, ja henkilöhahmoihin on ihanan helppo samaistua. On myös virkistävää nähdä feminismiä tuotavan esille näin positiivisella ja teinejä puhuttelevalla tavalla." - Fiona Noble, The Bookseller

Lottie on tympääntynyt. Hän on saanut tarpeekseen vanhempiensa painostuksesta Cambridge-opintoihin, huonojen asioiden tapahtumisesta hyville ihmisille ja ennen kaikkea siitä, mitä täytyy kestää vain siksi, että on tyttö. Niinpä hän päättää tehdä feministisen vallankumouksen. Lottie aloittaa kuukauden mittaisen projektin, jossa tekee näkyväksi jokaisen kohtaamansa seksismin ilmentymän. Nettivideokampanjan suosion kasvaessa Lottie joutuu kuitenkin huomaamaan, miten raskasta voi olla taistella niiden asioiden puolesta, joihin uskoo. Ja jos hän ei saa edes projektin (ärsyttävän kuumaa) kuvaajaa uskomaan feminismiin, kuinka hän muka saisi vakuutettua muun maailman? Mitä tytön täytyy tehdä muuttaakseen sen, mitä tyttöydellä tarkoitetaan?Holly Bournen suorasukaisen ja hilpeän Normaali-sarjan kolmas osa Mitä tytön täytyy tehdä? on puhutteleva kirja vakaumuksen puolesta taistelemisesta, omien voimavarojen löytämisestä sekä uskomisesta itseensä ja kykyynsä muuttaa maailmaa."Tämä on YA:ta kaikkein parhaimmillaan." Irish Times"Siitä, mistä olisi voinut vähemmän kyvykkään kirjoittajan käsissä tulla tilitystä, Bourne on tehnyt jotain merkityksellistä, todentuntuista ja helposti lähestyttävää. Bourne kirjoittaa hyvin viisaasti, rehellisesti ja sydämellisesti. Romaani on myös trilogian hauskin [...] Tämä on kirja, jonka haluaa antaa jokaisen tuntemansa teinitytön käsiin." Bookseller
