 Holland has always been one of the guys, and she’s just fine with that. She doesn’t want to be singled out as the only girl on the guys’ hockey team; she just wants to play - and play well - without any special attention. But when her team is selected to compete in a statewide event, she is unwittingly thrust into the spotlight and must tackle questions about gender bias and injustice. Meanwhile, the mutual disdain she feels for her captain Wes is fading and being replaced with something that may challenge her rule of not dating teammates. This story is packed with music references and feminism and may just make you swoon! (Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Award 2020-2021)
