About this ebook


Teen Genius (and Hermit) Carrie Pilby's To–Do List:
 
1. List 10 things you love (and DO THEM!)
2. Join a club (and TALK TO PEOPLE!)
3. Go on a date (with someone you actually LIKE!)
4. Tell someone you care (your therapist DOESN'T COUNT!)
5. Celebrate New Year's (with OTHER PEOPLE!)
 
Seriously? Carrie would rather stay in bed than deal with the immoral, sex–obsessed hypocrites who seem to overrun her hometown, New York City. She's sick of trying to be like everybody else. She isn't! But when her own therapist gives her a five–point plan to change her social–outcast status, Carrie takes a hard look at herself–and agrees to try.
 
Suddenly the world doesn't seem so bad. But is prodigy Carrie willing to dumb things down just to fit in?

Author

Caren Lissner

Caren Lissner describes herself as a “chronic creative writer” who is constantly thinking of story ideas. A University of Pennsylvania graduate with a B.A. in English, she published both serious and humorous pieces in the New York Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, McSweeney’s, and Weatherwise Magazine. The joys and frustrations of single nerd-dom in the big city drove her to write the novel Carrie Pilby. You can visit her online at carenlissner.com.
