Fuck you, Jen. Five stars for this masterpiece; I haven't reacted this bad to a book since Gideon the Ninth.
The Unfinished Line by Jen Lyon is a story that is not just about love, but a long battle with demons that you’ve been fighting every moment of your life. I don’t want to spoil it, but trust me, this book will wreck you.
Kameryn Kingsbury has finally landed herself on a significant role and drove herself into someone on a bike in the dark at the same time. Dillon Sinclair, the woman she drove into, is athletic, funny and attractive. A connection blooms quickly between these two women, and maybe this is something that can be beautiful. However, left in the past are demons that might have the power to tear these two apart. Will the story of these two cross the finish line?
I read The Unfinished Line the day it was published, but it took me more than a month to form the feelings from reading into words. If you feel something so deep in your soul, you have trouble spilling it out into words because it is so deep inside you. As Jen said, this is not a romance, it is a love story. A love story that is not only between two people but also about loving yourself. Believing that you are enough. Sometimes, we only think about the people who have crossed the finish line. Those who are seen. Jen Lyon turns your head toward the story of the people who are not seen at the finish line. Each battle one fights is different, and every outcome is different. And it is not their fault. That is what makes this book more emotional and wrenchingly beautiful. All I can say is, read the afterword. This book is not finished till you read the afterword.
Jen, f*** you, and I love you. You’re a genius. I’m so glad I was born at a time when I can read your books.

This is a beautiful tragic love story. I'm still feeling it hours after and I probably will feel it days after. Who am I kidding, I'll probably think about this story often and the way it made me feel.
I enjoyed the writing and how the chapters were done in acts. I didn't like the two endings but I suppose we got to see the what could of been and no one gets to see that. As this story was supposed to highlight the pressures on sports athletes it didn't focus much on Dillon's struggles too much. I would have liked to get inside her head more but I guess that's one part of the message.
