Every time I read his books, I get caught up in this, “Why am I doing this to myself? These people are horrible!” But, I can’t look away. I thought Little Children was completely engrossing. My husband just thought it was gross. Oh well.

Someone out there wants realistic YA! This is so exciting.

Seriously, thanks for the catch. Indeed, I had JOE COLLEGE on the brain, plus I have a client named Joe for whom Tom Perrotta wrote a blurb.

I doubt, though, that I could be the next Tom Perrotta, author of Joe College, who I think is who you meant.
