stardustandrockets's review against another edition

I don't know how to feel about this book. It was okay?? I don't really see why people are so obsessed with it. Will I continue? Probably. But it's eh.

It's great to read about a sport no one knows about before reading. Puts everyone more level.

I went into the foxhole court excited for the romance I had heard so much about. While the romance did not come much into play in the first installment, the character development and complexities of the foxes has me hooked.
That being said, there were a few things I had issues with. For one, slurs are used repeatedly for no reason, which makes reading this feel uncomfortable. Additionally,

Nicky’s assault on Neil was just brushed over?? And

the plot ebbs and flows, with some parts being a bit confusing.

It's so poorly written, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. That said, it's such a fun and stupid time and you should read it. Just watch out, they hurl slurs at each other like it's nothing
