Are you boy proof?
My LA friend Cecil just released her first novel for young adults (14+) Boy Proof is finally available. You know that you have a niece/daughter/cool teen friend...
Meet Egg. Her real name is Victoria Jurgen, but she's renamed herself
after the kick-ass heroine of her favorite sci-fi movie, TERMINAL
EARTH. Like her namesake, Egg dresses all in white, colors her
eyebrows, and shaves her head. She always knows the right answers,
she's always in control, and she's far too busy -- taking photos for
the school paper, meeting with the Science Fiction and Fantasy Club,
and hanging out at the "creature shop" with her dad, the
special-effects makeup wizard -- to be bothered with friends, much less
members of the opposite sex. As far as Egg is concerned, she's boy
proof, and she likes it that way. But then Egg meets a boy named Max, a
boy who's smart and funny and creative and cool . . . and happens to
like Egg. Could this be the end of the world -- at least as Egg knows
it?
What happens when an antisocial cinephile meets up with the worldly new
guy at school -- a quick-witted artist who's savvy enough to see
through her sci-fi disguise?
