♡ Cute Ending
♡ Queer Sports Romance
♡ Cheerleader x Quarterback (sapphic edition)

I really enjoyed this book.  I mean it’s a gay sports romance, of course I’m going to like it.  The characters were cute and the ending was absolutely adorable.  While yes, the characters decisions at some points get a little bit frustrating, I think it plays well with the YA vibe of the book.

There was a lot of talk about homophobia and dealing with people like that in a small town and not wanting to come out of the closet to the public in fear of losing friendships.  However, both main characters are out at home and one even having a bisexual mom, which was a cool addition.

Overall, it was a  quick read with a sapphic take on the cheerleader x quarterback trope.

Spice Level: 🌶️ (1/5)
Angst Level: n/a
POV: Duel, First Person
Release Date: 07, June 2022
Rep: Lesbian (Main Character), Polysexual (Main Character), Gay (Side Character), Bisexual (Side Character)

Home Field Advantage is the high school queer love story that I needed. It is written absolutely beautifully, I did not want to put it down. Character growth, plot twists,  suspense, and so much love. I would 10/10 recommend this to a friend.

Oh my goodness, this was beautiful. Definitely a rom-com but in a way that allowed for it to touch on some very important and raw subjects too that are often left out of young adult novels and I felt it also portrayed some queer narratives that I don’t often see in books or on the screen such as where youth are out to supportive parents and able to be themselves at home and around each other, but not at school/ in public.
