As he careens through high school, Jasper's list of to-dos includes: get high with friends, finish his novel, alleviate his best friend's suicidal depression, seduce the hottest girl in school, dispel claims that he is the father of an unborn child, and, last but not least, expose his stepfather as a murderer. But as growing up soon teaches him, what he wants and what he gets turn out to be wildly different, and decidedly unexpected.--From back cover.
