Soon to be a major motion picture starring Reese Witherspoon "Tom Perrotta is...one of the great writers that we have today. I love this book." --Harlan Coben An "engrossing and mordantly funny" (People) novel about ambition, coming-of-age in adulthood, and never really leaving high school politics behind--featuring New York Times bestselling author Tom Perrotta's most iconic character of all time. Tracy Flick is a hardworking assistant principal at a public high school in suburban New Jersey. Still ambitious but feeling a little stuck and underappreciated in midlife, Tracy gets a jolt of good news when the longtime principal, Jack Weede, abruptly announces his retirement, creating a rare opportunity for Tracy to ascend to the top job. Energized by the prospect of her long-overdue promotion, Tracy throws herself into her work with renewed zeal, determined to prove her worth to the students, faculty, and School Board, while also managing her personal life--a ten-year-old daughter, a needy doctor boyfriend, and a burgeoning meditation practice. But nothing ever comes easily to Tracy Flick, no matter how diligent or qualified she happens to be. Her male colleagues' determination to honor Vito Falcone--a star quarterback of dubious character who had a brief, undistinguished career in the NFL--triggers memories for Tracy and leads her to reflect on the trajectory of her own life. As she considers the past, Tracy becomes aware of storm clouds brewing in the present. Is she really a shoo-in for the principal job? Is the Superintendent plotting against her? Why is the School Board President's wife trying so hard to be her friend? And why can't she ever get what she deserves? A sharp, darkly comic, and pitch-perfect chronicle of the second act of one of the most memorable characters of our time, Tracy Flick Can't Win "delivers acerbic insight about frustrated ambition" (Esquire).

Tracy the Fire Witch: Book I When a nightclub in Munich is bombed by terrorists just days before Tracy starts her spring break vacation from West Point, the U.S. government's special task force asks her to join the team they're sending to Germany. They're hoping to stir up those terrorists and make them scramble. The team already has one witch plus a couple of werewolves. Having Tracy along will provide them with some added firepower. When she asks her soulmate John if he's okay with going with her, he replies, "Germany? Werewolves? Maybe some terrorists? What's not to like?"
Follow Tracy as she has a tracheostomy inserted and makes lots of new friends.
At the age of 24, Tracy Manners is arrested for attacking her girlfriend. It is the first time - a matter of lost tempers - but it is likely to mar the rest of her life and mark her as a criminal in both her social life and employment. Entering jail as an angry, sexually-charged young woman, it is Tracy's years behind bars and the time after her release - years of kindness and hard work, sexual abuse, unexpected friendships and ultimately, love - that help her to grow into a person worthy of respect.
