Hamlet is Not OK
by R. A. Spratt (Penguin, 2023); audiobook read by R. A. Spratt (Penguin Random House Australia, 2023)
MG masquerading as YA. Though the speculative mechanism alters without explanation (beyond authorial convenience), the mental health aspect is worth its weight, and the protagonist’s small-town backstory makes for a peculiarly Australian point of difference. Viva Hamlet’s sojourn in the real world!
