About this listen
Just A Girl: A coming-of-age novel about innocence, isolation, love, heartbreak, and discernment. RANKED 6TH BEST COMING-OF-AGE FICTION FOR 2017 BY AMAZON.
Before she could even speak, Paula felt like an outsider in her own family. Her mother's tears seemed misplaced, devoid of true sadness. Her father, silent and brooding, was her haven—when his anger didn't flare up. Her sister's perpetual rage was a mystery Paula could never solve.
As she grew older and her alienation intensified, Paula became an observer rather than a rebel, distancing herself from her family's turbulent dynamics. At 17, determined to leave behind an oppressive environment, she moved from rural Ohio to Washington, D.C., to start anew as a clerk typist for the FBI—a promising beginning.
Paula believed she had learned what not to do and promised herself she’d make unemotional and intelligent life decisions, unlike her family.
Or so she thought.
