Losing the Field by Abbi Glines

5.0

I’m a huge fan of this series, I’ve loved all of them so far: Until Friday Night, Under the Lights, and After the Game. This book starts with the next grade of football players, only Nash Lee is no longer going to get to be a football star. I can say that I had barely started this book when I already didn’t want to get out of my car to stop listening. It was actually Tallulah’s story that got me crying. So much in her that I saw in myself. Her walking to lose weight reminded me of the summer I walked at least 20 miles a week and lost weight. How I wish I could do that again as easily. The story actually reminded me a bit of one of my favorite books by Jay Crownover, strangely with the name Nash, the male character in that book had the same name as this guy, and kind of did the same thing to the girl in both books. But there were some extra things I didn’t see coming, like a YouTube star, and a death, and so much more. Plus there was an added storyline of the teacher that made a huge impact at the end, one that had tears streaming down my face. A great book, and I can’t wait, or hope at least, that there will be more with the other guys on the team in future books.
