Anna Bloom is depressed-so depressed that her parents have committed her to a mental hospital with a bunch of other messed-up teens. Here she meets a roommate with a secret (and a plastic baby) a doctor who focuses way too much on her weight and a cute shy boy who just might like her.
But wait! Being trapped in a loony bin isn't supposed to be about making friends losing weight and having a crush is it?
In her fiction debut Julie Halpern finds humor in the unlikeliest of places and presents a character whose voice-and heart-will resonate with all of us who have ever felt just a little bit crazy.
