- trans gay black mc, gay white li, bi sc, autistic sc, gender unconfirmed sc using they/ them pronouns, and other queer characters
this book was short and packed in with some memorable dialogues and moments!!
the teammates were so supportive, something we dont usually get to see in books, a coach who is understanding of his players (that man has a heart of gold), and there is also a reliable friend who supports spencer no matter what!!
spencer is a passionate protagonist although there were times when he came off too insensitive and i will admit that i was a bit confused with what the author was trying to do with justice in the beginning of the story. the book felt a bit rushed in the end, the issues werent entirely solved by the end of the book but there is hope that it will be in the future. i would also have loved to see these kids interact on the field, i feel like we were robbed off it 😩
lastly i would recommend this book to you if you are looking for a short, quick read featuring sports!!!
