All-nighter
by Cecilia Vinesse
"Autumn Povitsky is a high-achieving, booked and busy, straight-A nightmare. She's currently having a crisis of self--she needs a fake ID ASAP--but because she's a total square, she has no idea where to get one. Enter buzzcut hottie Tara Esposito. She's a rule breaker and party crasher of the highest degree, and if anyone knows where to get a fake, it's her. But Tara has hung up her James Dean leather jacket for the night. If she doesn't finish this godforsaken essay that's already weeks late, she can kiss her upcoming graduation goodbye. One brainy girl who needs a fake ID before sundown. One serial rebel who needs to turn in an essay before sunrise. It's obvious what needs to happen here. But with a years-long feud keeping the girls from working together, this may be a night to forget ... or one they'll remember forever. All-Nighter is a caffeine-fueled labyrinth of chaotic escapades--from prom after-parties to library sâeances to underground roller discos--led by two enemies who must decide if workingtogether is better than their worlds falling apart"
