Waiting on Wednesday: The Best Night of Your (Pathetic) Life by Tera Altebrando

The Best Night of Your (Pathetic) Life
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 Jake Barbone, 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.
*Hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine*

This sounds like a fun contemporary read with lots of drama. But it also seems like it could have some hilarious and fun moments. So I can't wait to be able to read it :) Also, I love that cover. It seems very fitting to the story (no girl in a dress, thank God) and the colors are so bright!
What do you guys think? Let me know below! And don't forget to leave you links so I can see what you guys are waiting for.

    This does sound like a good book. I really like the cover too. (Like you said, no girl in a pretty dress for once)

      I agree about the cover! And I just read and liked Paper Towns, which starts with an epic night of pranks that this totally reminds me of (in a good way). Nice pick!
      Stop by and check out our WoW.
