    Megan Rapinoe, captain of the US women’s soccer team and everyone’s summer crush, now has a book deal! She’ll be writing an adult nonfiction book for Penguin, which “will include anecdotes from Ms. Rapinoe’s life,” as well as a middle-grade book for Razorbill, speaking to “the power young people have within their own communities and the world at large.”

    The former is expected to be out in fall 2020, at which point we’ll all either be feeling cautiously hopeful or devastated and terrified—both emotional states that call for a good book!
