Eggshell is a young adult novella set in 2000s Adelaide that tells the story of Kira, a sarcastic, cynical teenager living in a council house with her Cantonese grandmother (Apoh) and her rebellious older cousin, Jake. As Kira navigates her experience of Year 12, the novella grapples with themes of identity, racism, romance, sexuality and adolescence. Join Amy, Payton & Abby as we deep dive into Eggshell and ask each other important questions about teenagers, racism, class, loss, and the young adult genre as a whole (oh, and of course which songs are (and are not) going on the playlists we curate for our crushes).
