'It was the beginning of everything. And the end of so much.'

Layla is in her final year of school. It's the last year to make sure that the next major phase of her life begins correctly because she's got big plans.

She just wants to be a normal teenager and to fit in but when her troubled cousin Marley comes to stay, he challenges everything she thought she was.

Steph Tisdell is a writer, actor and an award-winning comedian. She's a proud Yidinji woman, and her words sparkle with humour, depth and authenticity in this extraordinary debut novel that explores cultural and personal expectations, and responsibilities.

About the Author

Steph Tisdell thought she'd be a lawyer before she became one of the brightest stars in Australian comedy, selling out award-winning live shows and having several viral sensations.

Her natural warmth and wit have been a hit with audiences and critics alike ever since she won the 2014 Deadly Funny National Grand Final. She's a regular on Hughesy We Have A Problem, Would I Lie To You?, Spicks and Specks and The Project, she's a contributing writer on Bump, Fisk and Rosehaven, and has acted in Class of '07, Total Control, Bump and Love Is In the Air.

The Skin I'm In is her first novel.
