The Best Night of Your (Pathetic) Life

High-school senior Mary Gilhooley and her friends have spent their
entire lives--but especially the last four years--feeling like underdogs
and also-rans. Having suffered constant ridicule from Oyster Point's
resident bully king and superjock, Jake Barbone, they are all just
dying to go away to college and never come back. But with only a week
until graduation, there's one last thing Mary feels they absolutely
must do together: compete against Barbone in the Oyster Point High
Official Unofficial Senior Week Scavenger Hunt--and win.

Everyone is racing for the finish line with complicated motives, and
Mary's all-night adventure quickly becomes non-stop drama as shifting
alliances, flared tempers, and crushing crushes take over. Though they
are racking up points at a rapid clip, it soon becomes clear that she
and her friends must reinvent their strategy--and themselves--if they
want to even stand a chance at winning.

Infused with a brilliantly exhaustive list of items, clues, and tasks,
this funny, frenetic read will have you rooting for Mary the whole
way--hoping that glory will be hers for the taking.
