"You're like Verinoca Mars, but with roaches."

This was such a fun read! Hal is a great main character - she's working hard to be able to get the Verhaag Scholarship and go to an East Coast school so she can get out of California and away from working in pest control. Because really, who wants to be known as "bug girl" in high school? But Hal has great confidence and drive and I love her personality. When things start to go downhill with the scholarship, she enlists the help of her exasperating (but cute) neighbor, Spencer Salazar, and also tries to join the yearbook club as an extracurricular, which sends her on a hunt for last year's missing yearbook supplements. Everything came together perfectly in the end and this was just a really quick, unique, and enjoyable YA read.
