<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in Great Britain in 2015 by Sphere, an imprint of Little, Brown Book Group"--Title page versto.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>"This is a best friend in book form."--Andrew Kaufman, author of <i>All My Friends Are Superheroes</i></b></p><p>Today, Carrie Hope Fletcher is living her dream as an actress and YouTube star. But not long ago, she was trying to survive the many perils of the <i>Teen Age . . .</i></p><ul><li><b>The Rumor Mill</b>: <i>The more a rumor is spread, the farther it gets from the truth. It's like a giant taffy pull.</i></li><li><b>The Disgusting Business of Falling in Love</b>: <i>I've never known something to be so gleefully wonderful and soul-crushingly exhausting.</i></li><li><b>The Twitter-Sphere</b>: <i>If the Internet is starting to crush your soul . . . close the laptop!</i></li><li><b>Bears</b>: <i>Self-explanatory.</i></li></ul><p>Thankfully, she made it through! And although memories of her struggles, woes, and foibles stick around (as <i>Soul Shrapnel, </i> if you will), they look a little different today, thanks to <i>The Amazing Goggles of Hindsight.</i></p><p>So, in <i>All I Know Now, </i> Carrie shares, well, exactly that--heartfelt advice and hopeful thoughts on growing up. She just did it herself. She has the stuffed animals to prove it!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Though the book is targeted to teens, Fletcher's advice on making friends can apply to grownup women as well."--<b><i>Washington Post</i></b> <p/> "Openly addresses the ebbs and flows of adolescence, pursuing goals, and sometimes letting go of them."--<b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b> <p/> "Thus far, the reaction to the book, a guide to navigating the teen years, written by 22-year-old video blogger and musical-theatre star Carrie Hope Fletcher, has been evenly split. First comes the astonished gasp of gratitude and relief from a teenager discovering that, OMG, she's not alone and entirely misunderstood after all! This is invariably followed by a sob of retrospective regret from her mother that there wasn't a similar book in her day to offer such comfort and encouragement."--<b><i>Daily Mail</i> (UK)</b> <p/> "Full of warmth, wit and wisdom, [Carrie is] the big sister everyone needs in their life."--<b><i>Top of the Pops</i> magazine</b> <p/> "[She's ] young, fab, and incredibly talented. I think I manage to keep my massive jealousy of Carrie Hope Fletcher just [barely] under control: -)." <br> --<b>Jenny Colgan</b>, author of <i>West End Girls </i>and <i>The Little Beach Street Bakery</i> <p/> "Where was this book when I was growing up? Even with describing her mistakes and stumbles, Carrie's prose remains graceful and perfect. This is a best friend in book form." <br> --<b>Andrew Kaufman</b>, author of <i>All My Friends Are Superheroes</i> <p/> "Oh, what a fantastic book--so honest, so brilliant, so <i>kind</i>. If every mom or dad buys this for their teenager they'll be doing themselves a real favor--everyone will benefit, I promise!" <br> --<b>Jill Mansell</b>, author of <i>Don't Want to Miss a Thing</i> <p/> "Oh @CarrieHFletcher I am <i>loving</i> your book. You are wise beyond your years and you're a beautiful writer." <br> --<b>Harriet Evans</b>, author of <i>A Place for Us</i> <p/> "<i>All I Know Now</i> . . . It's super mega awesome." <br> --<b>Emma Blackery</b>, youtube.com/emmablackery <p/> "<i>All I Know Now</i> is exactly what my teenage self needed, and a reminder for my 26-year-old self that we're not alone in our quirks, breaks, wonder, and woes . . . it's absolutely magic." <br> --<b>Jodi Ann Bickley</b>, author of <i>One Million Lovely Letters</i> <p/> "Carrie has written the ultimate life survival guide for teens and beyond!" <br> --<b>Ali McNamara</b>, author of <i>From Notting Hill with Love . . . Actually</i> <p/> "An honest and funny guide to growing, dreaming, and being." <br> --<b>Samantha Shannon</b>, author of <i>The Bone Season</i><br>
