I Kissed Shara Wheeler

 I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston, 356 pages.

Chloe Green moved from California to False Beach, Alabama with her moms about the time she started high school, and in that time the most important thing has becoming beating Shara Wheeler out for valedictorian of Willowgrove Christian Academy. Shara is the principal's daughter, and all-around False Beach golden girl. Chloe is the only out bisexual at Willowgrove and has a whole lot to prove. So when Shara kisses her and disappears shortly afterwards (about a month before graduation) Chloe is determined to find her, because Chloe Green doesn't win by default. She soon finds that Shara kissed two other people shortly before she left, and the three of them are thrown into a completely absurd scavenger hunt trying to put together the clues that Shara left behind. 

This book is ridiculous. It's also extremely fun. Much like One Last Stop this book is carried by its great supporting cast and the relationships between them. This book is very theatrical and over-the-top, and I found it to be a great time. Honestly the part I ended up caring about the least was the romance, which I found okay. This was a fun novel, although probably more of a summer read.
