I read this book a while ago. Let me tell you a secret, I hate that after reading so many books I sometimes don’t even remember what a certain book was about. Sometimes I completely blank out when someone asks me about the characters or mentions a name from named book and I just stare like a total i...

Also appears on The Screaming Nitpicker.Even though this is the first Kody Keplinger book I've read, she is one of my favorite authors. How? Because I love sex-positive authors who write sex-positive books. We need more ladies like her writing YA and I have serious respect for her. I was happy to fi...

My Rating: 2.5 I have many issues with Shut Out. The book started out fine - I liked Lissa and Randy well enough - but when Lissa brought out the no sex until football team and soccer team rivalry ends plan, I immediately figured out the rest of the plot of the book. From then on, reading Shut Out w...

Shut Out is about sex. And from page one it makes it very clear, this is not about subtlety or masking a message with a pretty package. This is about sex. More specifically, Shut Out is about the views society has about girls having sex, compared to boys having sex. We've all noticed it at some poin...

Well, I wish I had read Shut Out in high school because then maybe it would have be...

Shut Out is a modern re-telling of an old Greek playwrite written by Aristophane's, Lysistrata. Keplinger is very successful in giving it a unique twist all its own. Set in a modern high school, where she pits the Football team against the Soccer team in a ten year long rivalry, the girls become fed...

Things are out of control at Hamilton High. A rivalry that started over ten years ago is escalating. What may have started as name calling and taunting has turned into something is getting people hurt. Lissa is sick of it and she is going to do something about it.For too long the football and soccer...

Ideally rivalries happen between two different schools but in Shut Out it happened in one school between two different spots team: soccer and football. The feud between the two teams has been going on for sometime now and the girlfriends are suffering. Lissa could not stand it any longer. She felt t...

This volume was required reading for me, as it's a modern retelling of Aristophanes's Lysistrata: the first novel-length story I ever completed was also a retelling of that play, mine being set in the Pimpernel fandom. The "war" in Shut Out is a years-long feud between the high school football and s...
