“Carrie, 19, is a genius: she’s already graduated from Harvard. But social success has always eluded her. She now lives alone in a New York apartment and every week sees a therapist who makes a list of goals for her, including going out on a date and joining an organization. Of course, Carrie goes about these things in her own quirky and hilarious way. The organization she picks is a church, which she is certain is cultlike and run by a minister who is fleecing the parishioners. She turns to the personal ads for a date, and picks Matt, an engaged man looking to cheat on his fiancee, and Carrie plans to rat on him. But even brilliant Carrie can’t predict that she’ll be attracted to Matt or that the minister is actually moral. Lissner’s heroine is utterly charming and unique, and readers will eagerly turn the pages to find out how her search for happiness unfolds.”

I just ‘liked’ the Tampons too. Oui!
Notice no mention of theater. At a recent conference, I was amazed at how many major Broadway and regional (union) producers are Penn Wharton grads, and how many met producing partners or got the theater bug at Penn.
