Maybe I Should Drive: Or Boys Are Crazy But Girls Aren't Always Clueless - Paperback

by Heather Kelly (Author)

A laugh-out-loud space adventure with big heart-perfect for fans of The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl, All Four Stars, and From the Desk of Zoe Washington.

Fourteen-year-old Kelly was barely surviving middle school when a boy scrawled a vulgar limerick about her on the bathroom wall-now her life is officially in freefall. But things go from humiliating to intergalactic when her impulsive little brother triggers a series of very bad decisions (and one very sketchy toy helicopter) that end with both of them (and their best friends) trapped aboard an invisible spaceship.

Turns out, life in space isn't any easier. The ship keeps melting. An alien with zero social skills keeps showing up. And worst of all? The bully who wrote that limerick is on board too-along with another boy Kelly might want to date... if they survive long enough to make that a possibility.

With her dignity on the line, her home light-years away, and her last breakfast Coke long gone, Kelly must face deep-space weirdness, middle school drama, and herself-before everything falls apart. Literally.

A cosmic misadventure full of embarrassing poetry, malfunctioning aliens, and one very determined girl.
