Angsty and entertaining, I KISSED SHARA WHEELER is a wild coming-of-age ride!

Casey McQuiston is phenomenal at telling stories of self discovery. Combine that with their ability to captivate through their writing...I'm a fan!

There is such a fun, diverse cast of characters in this book set against the backdrop of a southern, Baptist community. The premise of a scavenger hunt of sorts (with Shara being "endgame") makes for a lot of chaos and unexpected moments and both strained and budding relationships. It took me as long as it took our MC, Chloe, to understand and appreciate Shara Wheeler -- nothing is as it seems, which was a huge part of the appeal for me in the end.

The audiobook is narrated by Natalie Naudus, who also narrated Casey's ONE LAST STOP. Natalie gives a lot of life to the story, having great range as she personifies each character. I really enjoyed this version of the book!

Overall, I absolutely recommend I KISSED SHARA WHEELER! I hope Casey continues to write across age categories because both the adult and YA communities are lucky to have them!
