THE IVY (BOOK 1)
Book ID/图书代码: 06580009B32467
English Summary/英文概要: The main character is Callie Andrews, an ordinary Californian girl, who sets off for Harvard University expecting to have the time of her life, but finds that she is unprepared for the social and romantic hurdles of life behind those ivy coloured walls. Will she survive the battle of belonging to fit in with the popular crowd she so wants to impress and is she willing to sacrifice her true friendships to get there? Or will a dark secret from her past undo everything she is striving for...?
THE IVY DIARIIES has all the ingredients that make up a great teen series, plus that magic little something. The Harvard setting is very evocative and many teens will be able to identify with Callie’s feelings of being caught up in a completely different world from her own, while attempting to balance the struggle for popularity with working out who her true friends are.
It’s great, great fun and is packed with romance (will Callie go for the dark and unpredictable Gregory or the seemingly more solid and dependable Clint?), humour and juicy storylines.

About the Author/作者介绍: Meet Lauren Kunze and Rina Onur: the dynamic duo that created The Ivy Diaries!
Lauren Kunze (bottom right) grew up in Piedmont, California and is the Writer for The Ivy Diaries. She enjoys reading, running, theater, writing bad poetry, and reading bad poetry to Rina, who managed to survive as Lauren’s roommate for all four years of college. At Harvard, Lauren majored in English and minored in Neurobiology, and has indefinitely deferred a Masters Program in Literature and Philosophy at the University of Oxford in order to pursue her interest in creative
Rina Onur (upper left) grew up in Istanbul, Turkey and acts as the Creative Developer for The Ivy Diaries. She speaks better English than 99.9% of Americans (or at least the Americans she has encountered through her shameless addiction to Reality TV). She enjoys traveling, new restaurants, the Mediterranean coast, and the occasional friendly game of squash. After majoring in Economics at Harvard, she has worked at hedge funds, investment banks, and in private equity management, but is looking forward to engaging in entrepreneurial efforts that extend beyond the world of finance.
Lauren Kunze加州長大,熱愛閱讀、跑步、戲劇與寫詩(對她可憐的室友Rina朗讀)。在哈佛大學主修英文副修神經生物學。並計畫去牛津大學攻讀文學與哲學碩士學位(總有ㄧ天)。
Rina Onur在土耳其伊斯坦堡長大,此書的創意點子王。英文說的比99.9%的美國人要好。喜歡旅遊、新餐廳、地中海沿岸、還有不敢承認對實境節目的熱愛。哈佛經濟系畢業後,在避險基金、投資銀行與私人抵押管理工作過。正在找尋世界經濟的創業機會~
