About this listen

One night can change everything in this hilarious and heartfelt novel perfect for young teens about to start high school. Perfect for former fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

It's no secret that Jensen Chapman is a coward (though he prefers the term ‘risk averse’). He’s scared of dodgeball day in gym class, intimidated by his older sister (she's weirdly strong, alright?), nervous around his crush Leslie Chen, and freaked out about starting high school…just to name a few things. But on the night before his eighth-grade graduation, that’s all about to change.

When Jensen’s two best friends, Maleek and Cooper, show up to kidnap him (OK, recruit him) to compete against a group of girls—including Leslie Chen herself—in a series of escalating dares, Jensen knows it’s now or never: face his fears once and for all, or face a life of spinelessness forever. The boys set out on an epic race against the clock that includes faulty skateboards, internet-famous ferrets, and a stolen golf cart. But when Jensen finds out that Maleek and Cooper have been keeping a huge secret from him, he’ll need every scrap of his newfound bravery to save their friendship.©2026 Spencer Hall (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc
