The Storm Within

This novel is an emotional timebomb. Who will stay in one piece after it explodes?

Why does Tjaša want to be invisible? Is Viktorija really better than all the rest? Is football still Urban’s number one passion? Who does Anej have a crush on? What kind of worries does Erika have? Who does she like and who does she despise? And what goes on in the heads of parents and teachers? It is absolutely ridiculous to think students end the schoolyear as the same people they were at the beginning.

Despite being on the lengthy side, Nejka Omahen Šikonja’s new young adult novel is guaranteed to be consumed in no time. Straight away, the author reels us in with a complex and exciting emotional hook, which involves her teenage heroes who find themselves at (yet another) life’s turning point – the end of elementary school and junior prom.
