“Run like the dickens [and order] this bad boy right now!”—MTV

“Lovably neurotic.”—Publishers Weekly

Izzy’s symptoms are epic . . . or more like epidemic.

Izzy is a hypochondriac with enormous boobs that won't stop growing, a mother with a rare disease who's hiding something, a best friend who appears to have undergone a personality transplant, and a date with an out-of-her-league athlete who just spilled Gatorade all over her.

Yes, Izzy Skymen has a hectic life.

But what Izzy doesn't realize is that these are only minor symptoms of life's insanity. When she discovers that the people she trusts most are withholding the biggest secrets from her, things are about to get interesting . . .
