This one surprised me. I generally don't so much as finish sports romances, let alone enjoy them. I also demand a full and thorough plot which was practically absent from this book. Shocking, given the ~800 pages, which definitely could've been reduced as conversations seemed to be repeated often, but I still devoured this book and had a great time doing so.

I loved the depth of the characters, and Gibsie and Johnny's friendship was a highlight for me. There were a couple of questionable comments made by characters, and everyone seemed to act first, talk later, but given the characters ages I think it checks out.

What I'd like to see in book 2:

more character development from Shannon would be nice; she was meek the whole book. I'd also like to see Johnny actually listen to her for once.

Looking forward to picking up the next book regardless!

It's worth checking the trigger warnings if you're okay not going in completely blind, there's some pretty dark themes throughout.

Me ha gustado mucho la trama del libro, aunque se me ha hecho muy muy lenta porque hay muchísimo relleno, sobre todo al describir cosas y porque repite las mismas cosas una y otra vez. A parte de eso el libro lo he visto muy bien, me ha gustado mucho el personaje de Shannon y me daba muchísima pena. Cada vez que ella narraba me bebía los capítulos, no como los que narraba Johnny, que eran insoportables porque gran parte de él o hablaba del dolor de su cirugía o los chicos de su equipo diciendo groserías de las mujeres. Aunque los chicos eran unos asquerosos, Johnny es el caso aparte junto a Gibsie (aunque dice sus groserías), Hugghie y Joey, que es el mejor hermano que alguien podría tener.
Lo que más me ha entretenido ha sido la segunda mitad del libro.
