I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston, bestselling author of Red, White and Royal Blue and One Last Stop, is her debut Young Adults romantic comedy.
Shara Wheeler and Chloe Green will soon be graduating from Willowgrove Christian Academy, where Shara’s father is the principal. Each is the other’s nemesis, both vying to become a top student.
Since Chloe’s Mother moved her to a small town in Alabama to attend high school, she has spent the last four years avoiding tittle-tattle from classmates and the priggish admin. at the academy.
Then, a month before graduation – weirdly – Shara kisses Chloe!
AND, while attending the school prom, where she is to be crowned Prom Queen, Shara disappears!
Mystified, Chloe needs to know why, and where Shara has gone.
While on her mission she is ‘discovered’ by Shara’s neighbour and bad-boy, Rory, who has also been kissed!
Smith, Shara’s long-time quarterback sweetheart, also enters the fray. Forming an alliance, with the help of other school friends on the way, this intrepid threesome follow a trail of Shara’s irritating cryptic clues.
As the plot thickens and more secrets come to light, Chloe begins to suspect that there is more to Shara Wheeler, her family, and their small town than she ever imagined……
This is a coming-of-age novel about when teens leave High School and join the grown-ups. A time of wondering where your place is in society and fears that you may not fit the mould.
Then, finally realising that you can accept and embrace your differences, you understand that everyone has similar, or even worse difficulties, whatever their age or gender.
Uplifting, quirky, humorous and loving.
A great read for 2022!
