I'm coming back to this book after DNFing it last year. I think I just wasn't in the mood to read it, but I was interested in picking it up again and glad I finished.

seeing Dan and Marc's relationship and hockey journey over the years was very entertaining and interesting to read. it did get a bit repetitive at times even though it was fast paced, but still an enjoyable read nonetheless. It was cool to see the ups and downs of the hockey world as a player and how realistic it would be for two hockey players to be in a relationship. 

I liked the characters, especially Sarah and Dan's parents. I liked Larsson and the friends they made too. I think this could've been a little longer cause I felt like it ended a bit abruptly and tbh it was hard to see Dan struggle back and forth between the minors an  NHL, but I still enjoyed this book a lot. I think the author's writing was very straight to the point ans easy to follow too.
