I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston
3.0
3.5 stars
While I think the last 60-ish % was great, the first half really had me glad this was an audiobook and not a physical book that would feel like it was going on forever. I do think that the author does a great job of really BUILDING UP momentum to specific plot points, but I think our characters were a biiiiit too whiney and frustrating for my liking.
Overall though, I really did have fun with the mystery aspect of it, and I liked how it shifted about half way through the book. I'm pleasantly surprised with the latter half of the book, but not necessarily something I would say you have to run to read.
Still a ton of fun, and put a smile on my face multiple times. Just a feel-good book that reminds me of a mix of The Breakfast Club and the Scooby Doo Gang :)
