The Numerous Risks of Dating Lorna Perkins

Alexander Oladokun's young adult satire is back in print! Dalton Chabon, a sharp-tongued, antisocial high school senior from Virginia's smallest town, never thought Lorna Perkins would notice him again. She's perfect, unattainable and far too busy with her sometimes-boyfriend-sometimes-not-boyfriend to be aware of him. After years of yearning from afar, Dalton sees his chance in Camp Star: a summer camp for sixth graders; a camp that will fling him into adventures he never thought possible. With the help of a few friends, Dalton dives into a world of mischief, jealousy and first loves, all the while striving to conquer La Douleur Exquise and win the heart of the girl of his dreams.
