If you’re a fan of She Drives Me Crazy, then you absolutely need to pick up Home Field Advantage.
This book is not only a cute queer/lesbian story about a cheerleader falling for the new QB. It also tackles heavier topics like homophobia, religious trauma, and unplanned pregnancy with a lot of care and honesty. The characters in this book also talk and act like teenagers, which is the whole point of YA. I feel like this will be a wonderful book for teens to read, and I hope youth and school librarians add it to their collections.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the advanced copy to review.
