Summary
Details

The woman of the house came into the living room. 'Did you make your phone call, honey?' Karla looked at the woman carefully. This could be...yes...my great-grandmother, Vera Carlson. She looks young! Karla Hunsaker lives a normal life with her mother and little brother, until the fall of her junior year of high school when the last of her great-grandparents passes away. She wakes up the morning after the family meeting in their guest room only to find them both alive, along with their daughter, Cheryl, the grandmother Karla never knew. Karla assumes she is dreaming. Cheryl is Karla's age, and they share a strong family resemblance. But she never met her grandmother before this strange event, and her grandfather is an offish, grumpy old man. Author M. R. Tain opens a window in time in This isn't Normal, giving a millennial teen a look at her 1965 counterpart, as well as some fun and games and a legacy that fate had denied her. Karla spends a week immersed in mid-60's culture with her sixteen-year-old grandmother. The culture shock continues when Karla finds that she doesn't quite fit in, in 2005 anymore. Follow Karla on her subsequent journey as her memories complicate her life. It isn't until her senior year that she makes sense of the experience and is finally able to unwrap the gift that Cheryl unknowingly passed onto her.
