This slim volume for teens (and their parents), published by @Gill_Books is coming out next week. It's been shortlisted for an @IrishBookAward if you're someone who likes to exercise their franchise - irishbookawards.ie/vote/ - just saying.

You won't get to vote in the US midterms but you could vote for this in the @IrishBookAward - some consolation at least!
