Manicpixiedreamgirl

by Tom Leveen

Published by Random House Children's Book

Publication Date: April 23, 2013






 




Sometimes the most dramatic scenes in a high school theater club are the ones that happen between the actors and crew off stage.

Seventeen-year-old Tyler Darcy's dream of being a writer is starting to feel very real now that he's sold his first short story to a literary journal. He should be celebrating its publication with his two best friends who've always had his back, but on this night, a steady stream of texts from his girlfriend Sidney keep intruding. So do the memories of his dream girl, Becky, who's been on his mind a little too much since the first day of high school. Before the night is over, Ty might just find the nerve to stop all the obsessing and finally take action. (from Goodreads)


This description makes me want to read Manicpixiedreamgirl right now! I loved Tom Leveen's latest novel, Zero. (my review is here) If this book has me captivated as much as Zero, then I know I am in for an amazing read.
