There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Lie to Me isnt bad.  It is a little House like, except of course they solve crime, but showing the facial micro-expression types they supposedly work from alongside the pictures of famous celebrities and politicians is pretty cool.

Lie to Me is an Applied Linguistists' wet dream.  I studied Language, Interaction and Culture for 4 years, and this stuff was ground-breaking in the late-90's.  A lot of people didn't believe this was possible--quantifying facial expressions and nonverbal cues.  That they use it to solve crimes is a bit far-fetched, but it's entertaining.
