There's Always This Year: On Basketball and Ascension by Hanif Abdurraqib

3.0

emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective slow-paced

This book is heavy on intricate prose and imagery, but that's sadly not for me. Still had some enjoyable parts. Many of the analogies felt overdrawn and melodramatic, but a few hit. Not for me, but could easily work for someone who's into this type of writing!
