Brit Kitridge's plan was just to get her high school diploma and head to college and med school, but nobody can escape from fate, or is it history? The Beginner's Guide To Winning an Election reveals our main character's love for history, and after a summer reading books that fuel her passion for politics, Brit decides to join TM (Team Mathew), a fourteen-member group that has helped Mathew Boltanski win every election he's ever entered. Now he's going for the big one-student body president. By orchestrating brilliant campaigns one after the other, TM has made Matthew a national young star and promising politician who could even run for higher office in Washington. When Brit is accused of sabotaging the team, she realizes that Hawthorn High has its secrets, and someone needs to shed some light on them. The story is set in a world six years ahead of our time. Security is a constant issue. Politics isn't black-and-white, it's not even gray anymore. Inflation is out of control and the educational system is in crisis. But what happens when you find out what's really going on? What do you do with secrets no one but you wants to hold up to the light?
