We Are Totally Normal Review
We Are Totally Normal by Naomi Kanakia
CW: Underage Heavy Drinking, Microaggressions, Manipulative Behavior, Depiction of Sex Between Minors, Homophobia, Queer-phobia, Internalized Queer-phobia, Drug Use, Sexism, Ableism, Importance of Social Status, Toxic Masculinity
3.5/5
I discovered this book when looking for Jewish YA books to read next, but I was misled by the faulty algorithm in Google searching. I fell for it because the author's name is Naomi, a common Jewish name. This is not a Jewish book, but it is queer! It certainly wasn't my favorite, and the audiobook had its own problems, but I believe the controversy surrounding it is a bit harsh. I think people were judging the book for the wrong reasons. Yet, I don't believe I would recommend this book to most people.
We Are Totally Normal is about Nandan, a Desi teen in California who is figuring himself out and making mistakes while doing so. He sees the world of high school in a sociological way. The school's elite are "The 99" and everyone has a role in the school and each other's lives. Everyone values different things, which Nadan uses to his advantage. He desires close friendships with the girls in his life, to be seen as indistinguishable from them. He also wants a relationship with Dave, a cute nerdy boy on the fringes of “The 99”. Unfortunately for both Dave and Nandan, Nandan has no idea what his queer identity is or if he even has one.
I was not very far into the book when I realized it wasn't going to be Jewish, so I started looking for reviews online to see if that was true. While there, I discovered that people have some very heated opinions about the book and the characters. This, more than anything, compelled me to read the whole book. I wanted to have my own take added into the mix. Those that have negative feelings towards the book as a whole can be forgiven, but I believe those that took their issues with the characters out on the book are misguided. Many found Nandan to be manipulative, annoying, and not worthy of Dave. They also found the popular girl, Avani, to have no redeeming qualities and that it didn't make sense for Nandan to defend her. I personally don't think that characters have to be good or likable for a book to be well written. I also think that focusing on the faults of a few characters distracted reviewers from the fact that all the characters were flawed (outside of Nandan's mom).
Interviews with the author (linked at the bottom) prove that Kanakia didn't want a clean teen romance. The messiness, uncertainty, and lack of cuteness was intended. I didn't fault We Are Totally Normal for any of these things. However, I still didn't like the book very much. I truly wanted to, but neither the story nor the audiobook were kind to the reader. The audiobook was poorly balanced in terms of sound, especially for a shorter book like this. I struggled to hear Dave and couldn't turn the sound down soon enough for Nandan or his friend Mari. The story felt unresolved in the end and it was difficult to keep some of the characters straight. I also felt that the running gag's pay off was anticlimactic. These are the reasons I rated this book a 3.5/5.
Overall, I don't think this book is terrible or worthy of controversy, but you can probably skip it in favor of one of the author interviews below. Naomi Kanakia is a joy and learning what went into the book behind the scenes was nice. If you do choose to read We Are Totally Normal, keep in mind that it was never intended to be a sweet romance.

I’m getting quite fascinated at what turns up when I pick the brushes up in the mornings. Love the fact that my ravens are reappearing ... was going to add to this sketch but then decided that I like it exactly as it is. 8/100 . #the100dayproject #the100dayproject2018 #floatinglemons #100daysofart #100daysofpainting #ravens #blackandwhiteravens #watercolour #pinkpigsketchbook #schminckewatercolor #escodabrushes #artexperiments #identityexploration #sketchbookart

Examining Game Design Features for Identity Exploration and Change: New Article
Foster, A. & Shah, M. (2016). Examining Game Design Features for Identity Exploration and Change. Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 35(4), 369-384. Chesapeake, VA: Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE).  
Retrieved from: https://www.learntechlib.org/p/174339/
Abstract: This study used the Dynamic Systems Model of Role Identity (DSMRI) to examine the extent to which a game, Land Science, afforded identity change opportunities as exploration of science identities, science content knowledge, science confidence, action possibilities, and interest/valuing in an intentional manner. Analysis of the game and existing logged data for high school participants indicated that LS met its intended design goals of supporting students’ knowledge gain for urban science and scientific modeling. Identity exploration was partially met as having content knowledge; however, the criteria for identity exploration and change as defined by the DSMRI model were not met. This may suggest why it was not clear whether participants valued the experience and the content as personally significant to their future goals. Implications are discussed for advancing knowledge in the field about educational gaming for changing students' science identities.

The Voice of the People is Heard!
The only tool (our voice) we were given to ask for change has been put to use. After ongoing protests and sit-ins we have been relocated to a visible space. We are no longer hidden in the basement of Ashleman Hall. We are now visible in the fourth and fifth floors of the Martin Luther King Jr Building. This is a temporary space that we will be using for studying and collaborating; while we are given a visible permanent space.
Tumblr media
  Our voices were heard, our sit-ins were taken into consideration, and our ancestor’s fight was ignored. The students from the above image have led a long fought. Their hard work along with mine has been recognized. Yet, this should have not been the case. We should have never resorted to protesting for queer and trans spaces and spaces of color. They should have initially been offered to us. Our ancestors endured this so we wouldn't have to ; nonetheless, here we are in 2016 protesting for what we deserve.
    At the end of the day protesting allowed me to develop my interest for identity exploration. I became interested in the concept of identity and how individuals are able to explore it. An individual is able to  explore their gender identity, cultural identity, sexual identity, and various other forms of identity. I previously held this interest, however, protesting allowed me to fully develop this interest. I became aware how people of color and the LGBTQ+ community are oppressed by certain individuals. Being exposed to this was new to me, since I am from a small town where these issues do not occur. I am now aware of this problem that affects many individuals; hence, I support the concept of “Different is not Bad.”
    I am really thankful to all the individuals who stood in solitary with “bridges and QARC” during the protests. Your dedication and passion for whichever your interest might have been during the protests is indeed appreciated. Thank you for being involved and standing up for the people of color and the LGBTQ+ community. All of you are activists, scholars, and most importantly advocates for your own beliefs.
