Good and Bad Times at University' by Diana Holbourn

Thank you @Litpr and @DianaHolbourn for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Good and bad times at University is a young adult fiction and is book 2 in the series. You can read this as a stand-alone book. We are back with Becky Bexley who is about 10 years old or more and is going to university doing Media studies and Psychology. I do enjoy reading about Becky and she is a likeable character who wants to help people. I found the story is easy to read and can make you chuckle in places. This is an amazing read and is set in University. Becky is a very clever young lady and I wished I was like her when I was younger. I did feel sorry for Becky when she was worried she might get thrown out of uni. I did feel like she was a friend and wanted to be with her and support her through this worrying time. A delightful read. Can't wait for the next book 5 stars. Blurb Becky Bexley the child genius goes to university at a much younger age than most people do. She copes with the coursework, but has a few unexpected difficulties. Things begin well, as she makes friends she has fun with, and finds herself giving one of her psychology tutors some psychological help. She has a laugh working on a local community radio station with other students, and interviews the brother of a founder member of the pop group Fleetwood Mac. The paranormal comes up for skeptical and sometimes amusing discussion after a student tells the others about scary night-time experiences he's been having that seem to be supernatural. However, at a Christmas party in the psychology department, a succession of stressful events begins involving tutors behaving badly that makes Becky worry she risks being thrown out of university. Becky's advice is based on genuine therapy techniques and psychological research, and the books in this series combine humour with handy information. Bio iana Holbourn has written self-help articles and is the author of The Early Life of Becky Bexley the Child Genius and other books about the same character. Taking short psychology courses, working on a helpline and reading psychology books has prepared her for writing the self-help information that appears as part of the story in the Becky Bexley series. Diana lives and works on the south coast of England, where the sun shines ... sometimes.
