Looking for Alibrandi by Melina Marchetta is an excellent coming-of-age novel that follows the life of Josephine Alibrandi, a seventeen-year-old studying at a wealthy girls’ school. Set in Australia, the story unfolds during her final year, where she meets her father, navigates love, and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Caught between old-world Italian values, her no-nonsense mother’s wisdom, and the mysteries of boys, Josephine faces a pivotal year—one that will reveal family secrets and set her free.
