(2) YA Fifteen-year-old loner Perry has been sentenced to forced socialization at Camp Washiska Lake, where, in a fantastical turn, he discovers that the world of his favorite game is based on another universe, the World of the Other Normals. Through the protagonist's incisive observations, rampant insecurities, and unapologetic embrace of nerd-culture, Vizzini depicts the teen male experience with authenticity and honesty.
