"A trailblazing and painfully honest novel about mental health, friendship and making this crazy world a kinder place, from the author of the bestselling Am I Normal Yet?
Welcome to Camp Reset, a summer camp with a difference. A place offering a shot at ""normality"" for Olive, a girl on the edge, and for her new friends, who are all dealing with their own battles. But as Olive settles in, she starts to wonder

- maybe it's this messed up world that needs fixing, and not them. And so she comes up with a plan. Because together, snowflakes can form avalanches... ""Holly

Bourne applies her inimitable surreal humour to the dark reaches of the

disordered mind..."" The Guardian"

Reviews for Are We All Lemmings & Snowflakes?

Alongside an intriguing concept, there are shrewd observations about mental health issues… that will reassure readers this is a book (and an author) that does, actually, ‘get’ it. * Irish Times * an honest, funny book full of heart * Irish Sunday Independent * As ever, bestselling young adult author Holly Bourne tackles a serious subject with humour and sensitivity. * Sunday Express S Magazine * Bourne is intensely readable and writes with compassion, insight and humour. * The Observer * Holly Bourne applies her inimitable surreal humour to the dark reaches of the disordered mind… Olive’s passionate desire to spread a ‘kindness virus’ is tremendously endearing as she flies the flag for courage and altruism. * The Guardian *
