Minerva has been raised by her single mother after her father left them. On her 17th birthday, she is shocked to discover that he has been trying to keep in touch, and that her mother has been sabotaging his attempts. Furious at her mom, Minerva begins to investigate her dad, a famous marine biologist, only to discover that he has a new family, including a beloved and perfect, stepdaughter—a girl Minerva already knows and despises.


As Minerva tries to build her songwriting career, jealousy takes over and threatens to derail her life completely. It is only through the efforts of her best friend, Fin, and the introduction of Hayes, a new young man in her life, that she is able to see clearly who she is and who makes up her family.

Ahem. Attention. I have an announcement to make. I actually read this book ON MY PHONE in a day. I have an additional announcement to make. I LOVED THIS BOOK!

I actually started this one on a half hour long car trip because I wanted something to read and I didn’t bring my Kindle. I was searching through some books on my phone and then I read the first page of Get Happy and I just had one of those ‘eureka!’ moments. It was like the world stopped spinning and this beam of light shone through the window and on to my phone. That’s when I knew it was meant to be.

Ok, that was totally exaggerated. Well the last sentence anyway. Don’t judge. The thing is that I probably would have been blinded if the sun hit my phone screen and I’ve read enough dystopians to know that something majorly awful would have happened if the world stopped spinning. I like to think of myself as something of an expert on that topic.

Back to the topic. Basically what I was saying was that I was straight into the book and it was just what I was looking for.

I think my favourite thing about the book was the characters and their personalities. The main character actually had my exact sense of humour so that was great. And Finn was like the most adorable, quirkiest, funniest character ever. I love him.

And I adored the actual idea of the characters working for the Get Happy company. I love the idea of them doing parties for kids. So cool.

I am totally game to read more by this author, whether it be a sequel or a whole other book. I recommend this with all my heart!
