For every athlete or sports fanatic who knows she's just as good as the guys. This is for fans of The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen, Grace, Gold, and Glory by Gabrielle Douglass and Breakaway: Beyond the Goal by Alex Morgan. The summer before Caleb and Tessa enter high school, friendship has blossomed into a relationship . . . and their playful sports days are coming to an end. Caleb is getting ready to try out for the football team, and Tessa is training for cross-country. But all their structured plans derail in the final flag game when they lose. Tessa doesn’t want to end her career as a loser. She really enjoys playing, and if she’s being honest, she likes it even more than running cross-country. So what if she decided to play football instead? What would happen between her and Caleb? Or between her two best friends, who are counting on her to try out for cross-country with them? And will her parents be upset that she’s decided to take her hobby to the next level? This summer Caleb and Tessa figure out just what it means to be a boyfriend, girlfriend, teammate, best friend, and someone worth cheering for. “A great next choice for readers who have enjoyed Catherine Gilbert Murdock’s Dairy Queen and Miranda Kenneally’s Catching Jordan.”—SLJ “Fast-paced football action, realistic family drama, and sweet romance…[will have] readers looking for girl-powered sports stories…find[ing] plenty to like.”—Booklist “Tessa's ferocious competitiveness is appealing.”—Kirkus Reviews “[The Football Girl] serve[s] to illuminate the appropriately complicated emotions both of a young romance and of pursuing a dream.

Book Description
Shaved Heads Crazies by Samuel Carter is a gripping satirical thriller that delves into the complexities of power, control, and the allure of liberation. The story centers on Karen Wynter, the charismatic yet manipulative leader of “Bald Utopia,” a radical community where women are encouraged to shave their heads and renounce male influence to achieve spiritual and social freedom. Karen's movement quickly spirals into a cult-like phenomenon, drawing women from all walks of life, captivated by her promises of empowerment. Through humor and darkness, the narrative explores the absurd rituals and extreme rules enforced within Bald Utopia, including mandatory head oil massages and severing ties with loved ones. However, as the movement grows, cracks begin to form in Karen’s utopian vision. Tensions rise, and internal rebellions spark when followers start questioning the no-men rule and Karen's increasingly erratic demands. A series of misadventures ensue, including failed escapes, comical misunderstandings, and the struggle of one follower who discovers a biological truth that threatens to unravel the entire ideology. The book takes a dramatic turn when the women finally flee Bald Utopia and attempt to rebuild their lives, only to face a world that views them as a spectacle. As they find healing and strength in their chosen sisterhood, the past refuses to let go. Just when they believe they’ve reclaimed their freedom, a former follower emerges, reigniting Karen’s twisted vision and threatening to drag them back into chaos. This forces the women to confront the shadows of their past and protect the new lives they have painstakingly built. With a blend of humor, heartbreak, and social commentary, Shaved Heads Crazies is an unforgettable exploration of the seductive nature of cult dynamics and the resilience of those who survive them. It is a story about sisterhood, the consequences of blind faith, and the enduring human spirit that refuses to be subdued.
