Clarissa Explains It All is coming back—in book form

Clarissa Explains It All is coming back—in book form. Things I Can’t Explain is written by the show’s creator, Mitchell Kriegman, and tells the tale of a 23-year Clarissa’s quest to become a real, quirkily dressed adult. The ex-teen is still a journalist, like in CBS’ 1995 ill-fated pilot Clarissa Now, but she’s also trying to have her own apartment, deal with her parents, and wrestle with her feelings for a guy with a girlfriend. So basically, she’s like everyone on Girls, but probably enjoying much less graphic sex.
