Carrie Pilby

"Hilarious" -- New York Times

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 )

Suddenly the world doesn't seem so bad. But is prodigy Carrie willing to dumb things down just to fit in?
