I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston

A driven queer teen at a conservative Alabama Christian high school is determined to beat her flawless rival to valedictorian—until the rival kisses her and disappears, leaving a trail of pink-letter clues. Teaming up with the rival’s quarterback boyfriend and a brooding neighbor, both of whom were also kissed, she embarks on a scavenger hunt that exposes the school’s hypocrisies and the town’s secrets. Along the way, they build unlikely friendships, challenge restrictive norms, and navigate messy feelings, leading to a rebellious, honest reckoning with identity, ambition, and love.
