‘I am Layla the Ordinary. Doesn’t have the same ring to it as Alexander the Great, but then, some of us do have to be ordinary to make the specials stand out even more. Right? Right.’

Sift through the journal of Layla, whose overnight transformation from pedestrian to popular sends her world spinning into a riot of endless lists that range from:
1. Platonic (or, Laylanic) love to first kisses
2. BFF trouble to BF confusion
3. Fashion faux pas to ideal coffee dates

This rib-tickling and charming account of an average teenager’s life will have you hooked from the first page to the last.
