3. Psych Major Syndrome


Psych Major Syndrome, by Alicia Thompson (2009, August)

Light reads are really appealing right now, while I'm super busy at work, reading some more serious stuff, and just looking for fast, easy entertainment. Psych Major Syndrome was a good choice. It's about Leigh, a freshman at a small liberal arts college in California, who is majoring in Psychology. She's going through some drama with her high school boyfriend, who also goes to her college. Andrew, the boyfriend, is a total ass, and really believable. Leigh is a great character, because she's likeable, but not perfect or even totally clued-in to what's going on around her.

There's not much to say about the story, other than I enjoyed it. It was also nice to read a young adult novel with college-aged characters for a change.
