Her new best friend, the glamorous Jane, says that boys are the ticket to a spectacular future. Her ex-best friend Elizabeth is sure she's going to hell. "Say yes!" commands Jane, and Mary Margaret has tried to follow her c'mon-it'll-be-fabulous friend into the psychedelic swirl. But can she fit any of her old self to this new life she's trying on?
This is it, this is gonna be the summer. Mary Margaret Hallinan, former good Catholic girl, is clutching her ticket.
Friendship, faith, family, feminism, and1960s counterculture all contribute to the heartfelt, thoughtful pages of Bad Tickets.

Recensione:
“A previous author of middle-grade novels, O’Dell makes a fab entre into the world of YA literature. Although she sets her story in the ’60s counterculture, today’s readers will find no generation gap when it comes to Mary Margaret’s questioning of friends, family and religion and her pressures and experimentation with sex, drugs and rock-’n’-roll.”—Kirkus Reviews
