COMING SOON: Shut Out by Kody Keplinger

I loved the book The DUFF by Kody Keplinger and when I read the synopsis for Shut Out, I could not wait to get my hands on it! Although I'm never really into the whole love triangle thing (I always feel bad for the one that's left out... unless he's an ass), the female lead, Lissa, seems like such a tough cookie. She takes a stand against her boyfriend instead of bending to his will (I got all this from the summary and excerpt). I always love leads with spunk and independence. I also think I'll enjoy the whole plot of it. Sounds exciting!
It comes out on September 5th 2010. Sign up for YA Highway's (hehe it rhymes!) ARC Giveaway if you want a free copy!
-Oops, I didn't realize the ARC Giveaway is over. My bad.-
OH! YA Highway is having another giveaway for this book and several others on their Two Year Anniversary Giveaway! Good luck!

Most high school sports teams have rivalries with other schools. At Hamilton High, it's a civil war: the football team versus the soccer team. And for her part,Lissa is sick of it. Her quarterback boyfriend, Randy, is always ditching her to go pick a fight with the soccer team or to prank their locker room. And on three separate occasions Randy's car has been egged while he and Lissa were inside, making out. She is done competing with a bunch of sweaty boys for her own boyfriend's attention

Then Lissa decides to end the rivalry once and for all: She and the other players' girlfriends go on a hookup strike. The boys won't get any action from them until the football and soccer teams make peace. What they don't count on is a new sort of rivalry: an impossible girls-against-boys showdown that hinges on who will cave to their libidos first. But what Lissa never sees coming is her own sexual tension with the leader of the boys, Cash Sterling...
