Award-winning author Sleeping Freshman Never Lie pens a tale that perfectly captures the ridiculous, tumultuous, and sometimes heartbreaking truths about high school.

“Intelligent, quick-witted, and funny.”—Booklist

“Lubar writes in a laugh-out-loud style about the problems of a teenager figuring out high school. . . A great read for teens looking for a laugh.”—VOYA

Year two should be a total breeze, right?
. . . well, at least you’re not a freshman.

Scott Hudson managed to make it through freshman year . . . barely, and yet, somehow, triumphantly. Now that he’s a sophomore, he’s got it all figured out—after all, he literally wrote the manual on high school survival. But between a tough new English teacher, a school board member who’s out to cut club funding, his undefined relationship with Lee, and new drama at home, Scott’s about to learn a hard truth: NO ONE HAS IT ALL FIGURED OUT.
