About My Kind of Crazy:
Despite the best of intentions, seventeen-year old, wisecracking Hank Kirby can’t quite seem to catch a break. It’s not that he means to screw things up all the time, it just happens. A lot. Case in point: his attempt to ask out the girl he likes literally goes up in flames when he spells “Prom” in sparklers on her lawn…and nearly burns down her house.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Peyton Breedlove, a brooding loner and budding pyromaniac, witnesses the whole thing. Much to Hank’s dismay, Peyton takes an interest in him—and his “work.” The two are thrust into an unusual friendship, but their boundaries are tested when Hank learns that Peyton is hiding some dark secrets, secrets that may change everything he thought he knew about Peyton.
About Robin Reul:
Robin Reul has been writing since she was in early
elementary school, when she used to make her own book club flyers for her
classmates and then pen them original stories. At thirteen, she had her first
meeting with a major publisher, and the dream of someday being a published
author firmly took hold.
As the daughter of a film producer, she spent her childhood
on location, growing up on movie sets, and developing a fine appreciation for
strong black coffee. She graduated from Boston University with a degree in Broadcasting
and Film, and worked for many years in the film and television industry, both
as an actress and in motion picture development. One of her favorite jobs was
working as an Outreach Assistant for the Disney/PBS show “Bill Nye The
Science Guy.” Ultimately, Robin decided to return her focus to writing
young adult novels full-time. She likes to write the same sort of stories that
helped get her through her teenage years: funny, honest stories filled with
quirky, memorable characters that at the end of the read, make you feel like
you’ve just had a visit with a good friend.
When she’s not writing, Robin can be found singlehandedly
driving up the profit margin of her local Starbucks and indulging her love of
baked goods, particularly those in the key of pumpkin. She lives in Los
Angeles suburbia with her husband, son and daughter. MY KIND OF
CRAZY is her first novel.
