Easy breezy football season read. It's clear that the author cares so much for Athens and UGA, and that really made me happy. The mystery/thriller aspect is certainly there, but most of the book focuses on the relationships between the characters and the protagonist's life. Nothing fancy, but just what I needed.

I was a bit conflicted about this book - I really enjoyed it and thought it was well written, I love the voices of the characters and found the relationships in it so charming and real. But at the same time I wish it was written by someone who actually experiences this, and I feel like this is a bit of an idealized version of it. I would be interested in the opinion of this book from someone with this condition or something similar.
