Tracy Flick is back, ready to conquer high school politics once more. Now a hardworking assistant principal in suburban New Jersey, Tracy feels stuck and underappreciated in midlife. Her situation changes when the longtime principal, Jack Weede, unexpectedly retires, presenting Tracy with a rare chance for promotion. Energized by this opportunity, she dedicates herself to proving her worth to the students, faculty, and School Board, all while juggling her personal life, which includes a ten-year-old daughter, a needy boyfriend, and a new meditation practice. However, Tracy’s journey is anything but smooth. She is also tasked with serving on the Selection Committee for the new Green Meadow High School Hall of Fame. The committee's push to honor Vito Falcone, a star quarterback with a questionable past, stirs up troubling memories for Tracy and prompts her to reflect on her own life, revealing feelings of thwarted potential. As she contemplates her past, she senses challenges in the present: Is she truly the frontrunner for the principal position? Is the Superintendent working against her? Why is the School Board President's wife suddenly so friendly? Tracy Flick Can't Win is a sharp, darkly comic exploration of ambition and disappointment, resonating with both longtime fans and new readers alike.
