While her irrepressible mom, Isha, thrives on the crazy juggling between a hotshot job and their new home, Annie-desperately clutching on to memories of her father whom she lost three years ago-plods through each day with as little enthusiasm as she can. But its not going to work, is it? Not when shes discovered that her goofy childhood friend Keds has transformed into quite a dude and still remembers their first kiss; that shes been severely infected by her quirky classmates zest for everything fun despite utmost resistance; that the H-O-T-T college-going theatre enthusiast Kunal wants to teach her a lot more than drama . . .

Swati Kaushal
Swati Kaushal is the US based bestselling Indian author of Lethal Spice, Drop Dead, A Girl Like Me and Piece of Cake.
She was born in New Delhi, India, in a time well before computers, cell phones, or social media. Despite these devastating privations, she has only happy memories of her childhood; of playing with her friends, of ice cream carts and orange bars, and of reading, reading, reading to her heart’s content.
In school, she was the quiet girl with the explosion of subversive ideas bubbling behind a pair of nerdy glasses. She grew up reading mysteries and romances tucked inside her math and physics textbooks, thereby shattering forever her chances of winning the Nobel prize in Physics or Chemistry. Ah well...
For college, she headed to Lady Shriram College in New Delhi where she earned a BA in Economics and an honorary doctorate in samosas, chai and galpal bonding.
During a two-year stint at The Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (now Kolkata), Swati pursued her interests in marketing and mishti, and finance and friends, graduating with a degree in marketing, and a plan to revolutionize the world, one limited time offer at a time.
After six years of selling milk powder, dessert mixes and health beverages at Nestle, and a year of selling mobile phones at Nokia, Swati decided life was too short to not indulge her fantasy of writing something that required no approvals and had not a chance in hell of selling.
Et Voila, Piece Of Cake, which was a hoot to write, and became an instant bestseller. Still selling briskly after ten years, Piece of Cake has been translated into Marathi and German languages, and continues to provoke, confound, infuriate and entertain.
Swati’s second novel, A Girl Like Me, is a tribute to her growing up years, chronicling, through her heroine Ani Rai, the academic hardships, redeeming friendships, insecurities and heartbreak that are an inescapable part of teenage life.<
