- bioText:
Jeanne Ryan, raised in a family with eleven brothers and sisters, has lived all over the world. She spent her early childhood in Hawaii and the rest of her youth trying to figure out a way to get back there, with stops in South Korea, Michigan, and Germany along the way. Before writing fiction, she tried her hand at many things, including war-game simulation and youth-development research, but she decided it was much more fun to work on stories than on statistics. These days, she still loves Hawaii but has found her home under the moody skies of the Pacific Northwest.

August 20, 2012
Reeling from a recent personal crisis, high school junior Vee is tired of designing costumes and applying makeup backstageâshe wants to be in the spotlight for once. Playing against her sensible character, Vee tries out for Nerve, a racy reality game show fanatically watched online, on phones, and on TV. Debut author Ryan's view of the ridiculousness and pervasiveness of contemporary fame-obsessed culture is not subtle. After Vee pours water over her head while wearing a white top at a coffee shop and yelling, "Cold water makes me hot," she moves on to additional humiliating dares along with her Nerve partner, Ian, all broadcast live to Nerve's paying customers. Ryan's story is thought-provoking and unsettling, though even with the adrenaline rush the game provides, Vee's motivation to keep playingâtaking on increasingly sexual and dangerous tasksârequires a stretch of the imagination. While the ending goes off with a bang and a twist, the theme of doing anything for attention and money (and then expecting privacy) plays out heavily. Ages 14âup. Agent: Ammi-Joan Paquette, Erin Murphy Literary Agency.
