That's Debatable is a witty, smart, and feminist romantic comedy, author Jen Doll explores what it means to set boundaries while breaking down barriers.Millicent Chalmers isn't here to make friends. She's here to win, and she's on track to set a record if--no, when--she wins the state debate tournament for the fourth year in a row. Calm, cool, and always in control, Millie doesn't care what anyone else thinks of her, least of all the sexist bullies bent on destroying her reputation. Taggart Strong couldn't care less about winning debate, much to the consternation of his teammates, school and parents. In fact, he might even enjoy losing, as long as the side he believes in wins. But when a tournament takes a scary turn, Millie and Tag find themselves unexpectedly working together. Maybe Millie can teach Tag a thing or two about using his head, and Tag can teach Millie a little bit about following her heart.

Doris - a lone liberal in a conservative small town - has mostly kept to herself since the terrible waterslide incident a few years ago. Nell had to leave behind her best friends, perfect life, and too-good-to-be-true boyfriend in Chicago to move to Alabama. Grant was the star quarter-back and epitome of 'Mr. Popular' whose drinking problem has all but destroyed his life. What do these three have in common? A summer job working in a store called Unclaimed Baggage cataloging and selling other people's lost luggage. Together they find that through friendship, they can unpack some of their own emotional baggage and move on into the future.

Millicent Chalmers is a debate legend. Calm, cool, and collected, what Millie lacks in popularity, she makes up for in debate trophies. Until she meets Tag. Taggart Strong is everything Millie isn't. He's rich, he's well-connected, and he doesn't give a hoot about winning. He only cares about arguing the side he believes - much to the consternation of his teammates. But when the first tournament of the year takes a scary turn, Millie and Tag find themselves unexpectedly working together. Even though Millie decidedly does not like Tag, she does enjoy teaching him a thing or two about debate. And who knows, maybe Millie and Tag might make a better team than they think . . .
