This book was a little too cutesy for my tastes. It was a very easy read and unchallenging, even for a children's book. The plot wasn't particularly original or interesting either. My biggest problem was the narrator. She just seemed too naive for a girl of 12. Calling her mother "Mommers" and her grandfather "Grandio", and just being pretty darn ignorant overall made her seem like she was 10 years old. I just didn't find it believable.Show Less

Laugh and cry
I loved this book. This story was about a little girl whose mother leaves her alone all the time to go about her own life. This life style happens everyday in our society and it's very sad. In this story you just want to rescue this little girl and bring her home. Thank goodness for those who do love her. You will laugh and cry in this touching story.

I Also Recommend:
A Really Good Book...
This is one of the best books I read in a while.
It's about Addie, age 12, who moves to a "tin box on a tar patch" with her wry mother.
At first, when I read the first few pages I couldn't get into the book. But giving it another chance, I found Waiting to Normal to be one of the greatest books I read, that changed the way I think a little bit, in a way.
I recommend this book to kids 13 and younger (for girls, there are somethings in the book that a boy wouldn't quite "get"). I think it's worthwhile.3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

Great for Classrooms
This group in school I was in and I chose this book for a project, and we finished it in no time! Even though it is an easy read, the topic is very mature (her neglecting mother) and teaches a valuable lesson. I recommend this book for people who are interested in the subject!

Waiting For Normal
Waiting for Normal was a great book! I finished it really quickly and couldn't seem to put it down. I like how the main character, Addie, stays hopeful even through the rough spots. The author did a nice job writing about child neglect and the hardships of a girl growing up without a caring mother. This book is real, inspiring, and overall something I would recommend to girls who like realistic fiction. I loved it!

This book is so easy to relate to that you find yourself feeling how Addie feels. I loved it. It was school required, which i usually hate, but i read it all in a night. I could not put it down.
