Overall I found this book really quite boring. There was a lot of baseball talk which I didn’t understand, which is fine I guess but just made it drag for me. But fundamentally the problem I think is that I felt the main character had no personality whatsoever. I never felt I had a sense of who he is. And the love interest, although a bit more fleshed out because he was viewed through MC’s eyes, was also quite 2D to me. As a result I didn’t feel any connection between them and couldn’t get invested in their romance - the emotion behind it was missing for me. The ending felt rushed compared to the amount of build up which I always hate. A miss.
