  Volume 2 which tracked Bitty’s junior and senior years. I preferred this volume. One highlight was the tender depiction of Bitty’s relationship, the way he and his partner showed up for each other, supported one other, communicated openly and put effort into their relationship. Another was the focus on all the fears and emotions around coming out (to who/when/how) - especially when you are in the public eye as a professional sportsman in a notoriously masculine “hard man” sport. Well worth my reading time.
