This book was pure queer joy!

I absolutely LOVED Gene and Luis as characters. They were both so heartfelt and perfect together. Their relationship felt real- the pacing, the communication, the banter, the conflict- everything! And the sheer number of happy tears I cried for them... were numerous.

Not only was this a delightful romance but it was also most definitely a baseball story with all of the nitty gritty details. (And as it turns out, I'm really into that.) I loved all of the team dynamics. 

AND THE REP!! Oh my god, the rep! Here we go:
  • Jewish Romanian American Transmasc Gay MC
  • Mexican American Cis Gay LI
  • ADHD Rep (MC)
  • Anxiety Rep (LI)
  • Deaf Rep (side character)
  • Downs Syndrome Rep (side character)
  • Multiple queer side characters- lesbian, gay, and bi
