β¦ Synopsis
Drop into the world of rule-breaking, gravity-defying girls who shred riding freestyle BMX.
Shredded by Karen Avivi is more than a teen girlsβ sports book or a BMX biking book; itβs a motivating push-your-limits story for anyone who refuses to overlooked.
Josie Peters thinks sheβll do anything to qualify for the Ultimate BMX freestyle event the summer before her senior year so she and her friends take off on a summer road trip to hit the qualifying events in the Midwest. Late-night parties, an intimidating mega ramp, and the lure of sponsorships spark friction between the girls. When Josieβs best chance for success depends on her relationship with flashy rider R.T. Torres, she has to decide what sheβs trying to win and how much sheβll sacrifice.
Shredded is a fast-paced, fun read that tackles feminism, friendship, sexism, and sibling rivalry. Even readers unfamiliar with BMX or extreme sports will be caught up in the adrenaline rush of Josieβs tricks, wipeouts, and wins. Hints of romance provide extra conflict without overtaking the main story.
Ideal for fans of realistic young adult fiction, Shredded features a strong female lead character who goes after what she wants by taking action.
Experience the rivalries, rejections, and triumphs of Josie and her friends as they take off on a summer road trip adventure.
"Authentic, fun, emotional, and just plain gorgeous writing."
- Roxanne St. Claire, New York Times bestselling author
