Stupid Fast

Fifteen-year-old Felton Reinstein has always been on the smallish side, but in his sophomore year he starts growing...and growing.
During gym one day he smokes the football jocks in a 600-yard race. Felton has never been interested in sports, but there's no doubt-he is "stupid fast." As he juggles his newfound athletic prowess, his mom's sudden depression, an annoying little brother, and his first love, he discovers a shocking secret about his past which explains why he's turning out the way he is. (from Goodreads)
It's pretty funny that I don't care that much for football, but I like movies, tv shows and books about football (or football players).
This looks interesting, thanks for the heads up! :)

Thanks for high-lighting Stupid Fast! Just so you know... the story isn't that much about football, but jeez I want boys to read, so I totally supported the football cover (don't mean to chase anyone else away!).

What a good idea for a meme. I'm now anticipating this one, too. :)
