The Cringe Chronicles

Told from two different perspectives, The Cringe Chronicles is a unique father-daughter memoir following Kristin Tougias on her teenage tribulations and strange family vacations. Kristin's father, author and travel writer Michael J. Tougias, is a bit eccentric and a true nonconformist who inadvertently adds to Kristin's woes. At the end of each chapter chronicling their misadventures, Kristin's father Michael gives his personal and humorous point of view, often quite different than his daughter's.

All teenagers are at times embarrassed by the actions of their parents, but because of Kristin's father's odd lifestyle, she is in a league of her own when it comes to cringe-worthy moments. Join Kristin and Michael on this very unique father-daughter journey!
