About the Book

When Ben Candido and his friends, Ricky and John, decide to post a YouTube video of themselves surfing on top of a car, they finally feel like the somebodies they are meant to be instead of the social nobodies that they are. Overnight, the video becomes the talk of the school, and the boys are sure that their self-appointed senior year of dares will live in infamy. Every dare brings an increased risk of bodily harm, but Ben cannot deny the thrill and sense of swagger that come with it. The stakes become even more complex when a mysterious donor bankrolls their dares in exchange for a cut in the online revenue the videos generate. But at what point do the risk and the reward come at too high of a price? What does it take to stay true to one's self in the face of relentless pressure?

Review :
School Library Journal "The extreme dares will appeal to boys, but readers of both genders will identify with the fear and uncertainty Ben and his friends face...With timely subject matter yet universal themes, this novel should be a popular one." VOYA "Though sometimes the emotional intensity is discomforting, it has sweet parts that keep the reader smiling." Booklist "This follow-up to Tap Out (2012) should further establish Devine as a go-to author for gritty stories about guys fighting on the fringe... [W]onderfully inarticulate characters and subtle insight into our culture of quick but damaging fame." Publishers Weekly "In a culture where online audiences are always ready for the must-see link of the moment and corporations are eager to capitalize on user-generated content, Devine's story takes on a chilling reality... An adrenaline-inducing read about teens getting in over their heads as they try to make something of themselves." Kirkus Reviews "Devine's examination of the teenage boy's need for adrenaline is admirably complex ... Astute and riveting." MotherDaughterBookclub.com "Riveting and fast paced, this book is hard to put down. I recommend it for mother-daughter book clubs with girls aged 14 and up."
