The truth is that for those who dare to be different school and growing up can be hell. "Truth & Dare" is a collection of edgy, quirky stories that revolve around a funny, nerdy cast of characters who struggle to fit in ...or struggle not to. They will appeal to the inner geek of anyone caught up in attempts to navigate the labyrinthine teen caste system. Written in authentic teen voices, they speak to fans of the movies "Juno" and "Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist" and the TV series "The Gilmore Girls". Witty and smart, these are short stories from the point of view of funny, though not always cool or popular guys and girls, who are dealing with all the pressures of growing up - school, friends, music, relationships, parents, and just plain fitting in (or not).
