Young Adult

The kids at Sam's school never knew if they should make fun of her for being too smart or too dumb. That's what it means to be dyslexic, smart, and illiterate. Sam is sick of it. So when her mom gets a job in a faraway city, Sam decides not to tell anyone about her little illiteracy problem. Without her paradox of a reputation, she falls in with a new group of highly competitive friends who call themselves the Brain Trust.

When she meets Nate, her charming valedictorian lab partner, she declares her new reality perfect. But in order to keep it that way, she has to keep her learning disability a secret. The books are stacked against her and so are the lies. Sam's got to get the grades, get the guy, and get it straight-without being able to read.

Re: Counting To D

I have to commend you for not giving up, and going on to
becoming an Author, which is something that a lot of
"normal" people, including me, can only dream of!! Part of
you is the hunger to learn, and the other part is guts,
which will always take you far. Your book sounds like a
great Summer read, and I'll be looking forward to adding it
to my list. Congratulations on your debut, and I hope to
see more from you!!
