This Could All Go Bad by Spencer Hall

It’s no secret that Jensen Chapman is a coward. He’s scared of skateboarding down Clay’s Mill Hill, dodgeball day in gym class, talking to his crush Leslie Chen, 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, recruit him to compete against a group of girls (including Leslie Chen herself) in a series of dares, Jensen knows it’s now or face his fears once and for all, or face a life of wimp-hood forever. The boys set out on an epic journey that includes faulty skateboards, internet-famous ferrets, frat bros, 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.
