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.
