A review by seventhchariot
Home Field Advantage by Dahlia Adler
4.0
CW: misogyny, homophobia and discussion of outing, mentions of abortion/miscarriage
Home Field Advantage is a super cute f/f ya sports romance following a cheerleader and a football player!
Although the tone is more serious and deals with some characters not being publicly out, this is still one of those books where you can't help but feel joy for the characters. And the serious moments are so important and I love seeing them being the topic in books, specifically overcoming misogyny and learning how to navigate the world as a queer person while being surrounded by homophobic people.
I loved the sports aspect of this book and how much the main characters cared about it! I also loved how supportive their parents were about them pursuing their chosen sport!
I do wish that some things at the end had gotten resolved more, or were at least talked about some more, but overall I had a great time with this story and I'd highly recommend it if you're looking for an adorable but still hard-hitting ya contemporary romance!
Rating: 4 stars
