Beautiful novel in verse by the amazing Jacqueline Woodson. This one deals with head injuries and concussions in football, something I am not sure I've ever read about in YA fiction. But of course, it's about much more...friendships, family, loss, and growing up.

i don’t really know anything about sports, nor have any interest in them, but this was so sad and delicate. the audiobook narrator was also fantastic.
