"Normal; Conforming to the standard or the common type, usual, regular or natural."
Levi looks like your normal "punk rock" teenage girl, long blonde hair which she frequently dyes more than she should, tattoos she'll probably regret in 20 years, piercings her mom hates, ripped jeans, and band shirts, but the sad truth is as hard as Levi tries, she can't and won't ever be normal.
The doctors say it's a rare disease caused by her vocal cords not forming correctly. She can hear and understand everything just fine, she just can't talk. It was hard growing up mute, but Levi found other ways to express herself, mainly through writing songs. Levi hopes moving to Australia to live with her older brother, Ben will give her a fresh start, a new beginning. She soon meets Michael Clifford, a funny, dorky yet adorable guy in her History class. Will she let him help her come to terms with her inner problems, or will she push him away like every other person in her life?
Allison Montgomery wasn't your average teenage girl. She liked punk rock bands and dressed in all black almost all the time. She already had a hard time fitting in at her school in Cleveland, Ohio, so she figured she would have an even harder time fitting in at her new school in Sydney, Australia.
When she meets Luke Hemmings, the typical bad boy who could get any girl he wanted, her life will take a huge turn. But for better or worse?
