InΒ Teen Angst!Β NaaahΒ . . . Ned Vizzini offers an authentic and raw portrayal of the crushing anxiety many teens experience, and which often is dismissed as simple βangstβ. In this classic testament to high school, NedΒ invites you into his world of school, parents, cool (and almost cool), music (the good and bad), friends, fame, camp, sex (sort of), CancΓΊn (almost), prom, beer, video games, and more. Β With wit, irony, and honesty, VizziniΒ presents the weird, funny, and sometimes mortifying moments that made up his teen years. From theΒ author of Broadway musical sensationΒ Be More ChillΒ andΒ It's Kind of a Funny Story,Β this is a quasi-autobiographical examination of one high schoolerβs battle with social anxiety, written when the author was just nineteen.
Β βFiercely intelligent and introspective . . . Insightful, and thoroughly charming.β βSLJ
