THERE WILL BE A DATE CHANGE FOR THE OOYL MAY BOOK CLUB! Due to a death in my family, I need to reschedule this weekend’s book club meeting for HOW YOU GET THE GIRL by Anita Kelly.
We will now be meeting NEXT SATURDAY, JUNE 6TH, AT 2 PM ET/11 AM PT.

This book was requested by the Out of Your League Discord community, as many of the members have read and loved the book. Not only that, it features ace representation, which is rare in a romance novel!

From the book’s description:
When a smart-mouthed junior joins East Nashville High's basketball team, Coach Julie Parker's ready for the challenge. What she's not prepared for is the teen's new foster parent, a super-hot ex-WNBA baller and star of Julie's fantasies. Julie knows the cool and confident Elle Cochrane is way out of her league. But despite being completely tongue-tied around her, somehow Julie persuades Elle to step in as her assistant coach.
Elle has not been on a court since her career-ending injury, but she can't seem to resist Julie, who is just as adorable as her nervous babbling. Maybe because being around her makes Elle feel sparks for the first time in long while--which is why she offers to help when Julie reveals her lifelong insecurity about dating and how she wishes she could practice at it...like sports. As Elle helps Julie navigate dating life, lines grow increasingly blurred, and the two must decide whether they'll stay on the sidelines--or finally take their shot.
Our Zoom event will be on Saturday, June 6th at 2 PM ET/11 AM PT. Anita will be joining us for that conversation, which is only open to VIP All-Access or Biggest Fan tier paid subscribers. The conversation will be recorded and sent out to everyone who registered for the event, so you can watch it even if you can’t join us live.
Access to the Zoom event requires registration. You can register for ‘HOW YOU GET THE GIRL’ BOOK CLUB DISCUSSION at the link below:
