Coming-of-age by Evie Kelley
My Bicentennial – A Mostly True Tale of the Far-Out ’70s
“Humorous, heartfelt, and relatable to any generation.”
Growing up in the 1970s, Massachusetts high school senior Deidre Daly has always been told “thin is in” and she is out. As the Bicentennial year 1976 begins, Deidre vows to take control of both her life and how she looks. What follows is a frequently funny, often emotional coming-of-age journey as she navigates school, home, and her complicated relationships—and eventually learns to love herself as she is.
An engaging book club read for women who lived through the ’70s (and had the Pet Rock to prove it), for people who dig that far-out era, and for every high school girl who’s been through that struggle to fit in—before discovering standing out is a lot more fun.
