Unusual

"There's nothing unusual about me. I wear the same clothes as everyone else. I see the right films, read the right books, listen to the right music. I ought to fit in, but somehow I still don't. The problem is me: I just don't match. I'm the wrong shape, somehow, the wrong colour. I like the wrong books. I watch the wrong films in secret. I'm different, whether they like it or not, and I don't see why I should pretend otherwise. But it's hard when everyone else has friends. And it's hard when people only ever really like you when you're being someone else." (The Lollipop Shoes, Joanne Harris)
