Holly Fitzgerald has inexplicably woken up inside the body of an LA teenager called Trinity Byrne in 1980, trapping Trinity in Holly's forty-year-old body back in Melbourne, 2020.

Mind. Officially. Blown.

Holly finds herself navigating a brand-new body, family, and a cute boy next door—not to mention a rock band that might just make it, and a potential kidnapper. Meanwhile, lies intersect with truth, hurtling both Holly and Trinity towards a dangerous fate as the connections between them grow deeper and stranger than either could have ever imagined.

Freaky Friday meets Pretty Little Liars—if the Liars were an all-girl punk band from the 1980s—in this highly original soul-swap story from the critically acclaimed author of My Life as a Hashtag.

'An absolute delight. Funny, clever, compelling, and utterly original.' NINA KENWOOD, It Sounded Better in My Head
