Pros: This book for me was really interesting as I’ve never read a book about baseball before. The story follows Zach through his journey of being a baseball player throughout the majors and how he find love along the way.
Cons: Personally this book felt long at times and rushed toward the end. I was hoping there was a bit more sweetness but that just my personal opinion 😭.
Content Warnings: This story talks about big topic such as coming out, homophobia and the general challenges of being in sports as a disabled player.
Overall this book is a 4 stars.

I would’ve preferred it to be one way or the other—either the story of their love as it first grew and developed, or the story of them trying again and actually having time to build the new relationship on the people they’d become.
