I'm waiting on
The Best Night Of Your (Pathetic) Life by Tara Altebrando
Releasing Tomorrow! July 5th 2012
An all-day scavenger hunt in the name of eternal small-town glory
With only a week until graduation, there’s one last thing Mary and her friends must do together: participate in the Oyster Point High Official Unofficial Senior Week Scavenger Hunt. And Mary is determined to win.
Mary lost her spot at Georgetown to self-professed “it” bully Pete Lembo, and she’s not about to lose again. But everyone is racing for the finish line with complicated motives, and the team’s all-night adventure becomes all-night drama as shifting alliances, flared tempers, and crushing crushes take over. As the items and points pile up, Mary and her team must reinvent their strategy—and themselves—in order to win.

Why I'm Waiting?
I love books that take place during just one crazy night. They are usually a lot of fun. I like the idea of the scavenger hunt as well. It comes out tomorrow and I have been looking forward to a fun summer read!

Great pick! I love movies/books that take place in a single night. I'm definitely checking this out. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds to me like it'd be a lot of fun to read, because it already confuses me from the few words of summary. This book's probably a mess, but if you like to untangle a lot, gotta love it.
