Leigh is in her first year as a freshman at a small California college and, so far, college is not what she thought it would be.

Despite majoring in Psychology, Leigh cannot diagnose and solve any of her own problems.

Like the fact that her boyfriend, Andrew, wants to take things to the next level, even though Leigh's feelings for their relationship are almost non-existent. She's much more interested in Andrew's roommate, who is really attractive, but more often than not moody and not easy to be around.

With her teachers putting a lot of pressure on her (much more than she expected) and a few catty girls making Leigh's life difficult, Leigh is starting to wonder if college was for her after all.

Written with humor and heart, this is a wonderful book that teenagers and young adults can relate to. The main character is believable and honest. And, even though the storyline sometimes falters, Leigh's character holds the book together nicely.
