About Me

Hi. I'm Lauren. I write books for teens. If I added you, it probably means we like the same kind of books. Feel free to leave me comments or messages. I also like talking on AIM. My screen name is laurenbarnholdt -- yes, I'm very creative and original.
I have a radio show now. You can listen to past broadcasts here, and check me out when I'm live on the air, and even call in to ask me questions. Fun, right?:This is my new book, TWO-WAY STREET, which is in stores now!!!! It's about a girl who gets stuck driving cross-country with her ex-boyfriend, after he dumps her for a girl he meets on myspace.. Get Your Own! | View Slideshow ABOUT REALITY CHICK
All hour study fests.....all-night parties....
Going away to college means total independence and freedom. Unless of course your freshman year is taped and televised for all the world to watch. On uncensored cable.
Sweet and normal Ally Cavanaugh is one of five freshpeople shacking up on In the House, a reality show filmed on her college campus. (As if school isn't panic-inducing enough!) The cameras stalk her like paparazzi, but they also capture the fun that is new friends, old crushes, and learning to live on your own. Sure, the camera adds ten pounds, but with the freshman fifteen a given anyway, who cares? Ally's got bigger issues -- like how her long-distance bf can watch her loopy late-night "episode" with a certain housemate...
Freshman year on film.
It's outrageous.
It's juicy.
And like all good reality TV, it's impossible to turn off.
IN STORES NOW!
