Emmy Gold is Totally E̶x̶t̶r̶a̶ordinary

Emmy Gold wants to be ordinary, but it's hard when everything about her is so...extra.

Growing up on television and starring on the most popular sitcom has made her a household name, but it's left her longing for a no pressure life in the New Jersey 'burbs. When she's fired from her role on Helping Hanna, everyone expects her to land another lead part, but Emmy's got her bags packed to leave New York City for good.

Fitting back into the real world will be easy, right? Not so much when Emmy's got a Mom-ager who spends most days plotting her comeback, and The Queen of Patterson Middle School who has an epic plan to destroy her. Luckily, BFF Jasmine is there for back-up, but will all the pressure of reality prove as complicated as the spotlight and send Emmy back to NYC?

EARLY REVIEWS "This book is SO good. It's about friendship and change-the good and the bad! It made me feel so many things-excited, happy, sad, and everything all at once. It's really heartwarming, and shows that people can change even if at first it seems like they can't. It kept surprising me and every chapter was more exciting than the last and I just couldn't wait to see what was going to happen! I think everyone should read this book-girls, boys, young people and grown ups too. I LOVED IT!" -Everly Carganilla, actress in Yes Day and Spy Kids: Armageddon

"I love Emmy so much. This is the perfect book for preteens or young teens going through those rough middle school years, dealing with periods, boys, friend drama, and family pressure. It's also perfect for those of us reminiscing on those hard times and looking back through a friendlier lense. Emmy grows so much in this book, coming in to her own in a fun and relatable way. Definitely recommend!" - Haleigh Wenger, author of Managing the Matthews
