It's Kind of a Funny Story (Movie Tie-in Edition) [Paperback or Kindle]
08/31/2010
The film tie-in edition of It's Kind of a Funny Story features a brain-map title page inspired by the art in the book and the original cover. It looks something like this, an image that Focus Features provided to Hyperion Books in summer 2010:
Thanks to everyone who has made this edition possible, including everybody at Hyperion Books, Focus Features, and all readers old and new.
The text is the same as the 2007 paperback edition.
Be More Chill - US Paperback
September 14, 2005
[click cover for hi-res image]
Be More Chill is the story of a guy who gets a pill that makes him cool. The pill is called a "squip"--it's actually a quantum computer that lives in your brain and gives you real-time social advice. The kid is named Jeremy Heere. And that's about what you need to know.
"A fresh, spontaneous and original voice. It's fun, wacky, outrageous. I just couldn't stop reading."
-- Judy Blume
For more about the squip itself and the campaign that went along with it, watch the squip video (warning--it may take a while to load).
