Shut Out is "A contemporary reimagining of the Greek play, 'Lysistrata', in which high school senior Lissa decides it's time to end her school's ridiculous sports rivalry once and for all by starting a hook-up strike."
Available from Little, Brown/Poppy on September 5th, 2011, Shut Out takes on the sexual politics of high school through a comical cast of characters, not least of all Lissa herself. It's a great followup to Kody's first book, The DUFF (Designated Ugly Fat Friend). We convinced Kody to provide YA Highway with one of her precious first ARCs for this giveaway, because we knew exactly how we'd do it...
