Cure for the Common Universe

Cure for the Common Universe

Prepare to be cured by this quirky and hilarious debut novel about a sixteen-year-old loner who is sent to rehab for video game addictionâ€”perfect for fans of Ned Vizzini and Jesse Andrews.

Sixteen-year-old Jaxon is being committed to video game rehabâ€¦ten minutes after meeting a girl. A living, breathing girl named Serena, who not only laughed at his jokes but actually kinda sorta seemed excited when she agreed to go out with him.

Jaxonâ€™s first date. Ever.

In rehab, Jaxon canâ€™t blast his way through galaxies to reach her. He canâ€™t slash through armies to kiss her sweet lips. Instead, he has four days to earn one million points by learning real-life skills. And heâ€™ll do whatever it takesâ€”lie, cheat, steal, even learn how to cross-stitchâ€”in order to make it to his date.

If all else fails, Jaxon will have to bare his soul to the other teens in treatment, confront his motherâ€™s absence, and maybe admit that itâ€™s more than video games that stand in the way of a real connection.

From a bright new voice in young adult literature comes the story of a young man with a serious case of arrested developmentâ€”and carpal tunnel syndromeâ€”who is about to discover what real life is all about.
