A Brief Synopsis of the Becky Bexley Book Series

It's a story that Mixes fact and fiction, humour and serious topics, by Diana Holbourn.

The Becky Bexley book series is about a child genius, Becky, who goes to school and university surprisingly young, and despite her character flaws, manages to provide a lot of valuable help to other people along the way, such as giving some of her school teachers tips on how to give up smoking, and advising people on ways of overcoming mental health problems, including unexpectedly getting to lecture some American politicians and other White House staff about getting over depression, which quite a few seem to suffer from at the time, for some reason. The information she gives is taken from real psychology books.

The first book in the series starts out as just a bit of fun, before getting more serious; and there's a fair bit of humour in all the books.

While Becky's at university, she learns a lot of interesting and worthwhile things, mostly from other students. She also gets to have some fun, doing things such as working with other students on a community radio station, and finding herself doing a comedy act in front of other students who came to hear a professional comedian, but enjoy hearing her too. She also interviews the brother of one of the founder members of the pop group Fleetwood Mac, in a chapter based on questions I asked the genuine person.

When she leaves, she does voluntary work telling inspirational stories and giving advice on a psychology programme on a national radio station, to help more with people's mental health problems, and with other things such as advising people on ways of coping better with looking after naughty children, before her career comes crashing down, and then things get worse for a while before getting a bit better again for her. Such is life.

(The first two books in the series are pretty well proof-read; but the rest of them aren't proof-read thoroughly, so the presentation won't be as polished as it is in the first ones in parts. But that shouldn't really detract from anyone's interest in the information in them or any amusement value they find in the humour.)
