  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

2.0

I loved the idea of a book full of queer athletes in uni but unfortunately, the execution was lacking. The writing isn't great and the plot is non-existent. I also felt like the characters had no personally apart from being their labels. And last but not least, why go to the trouble of inventing a country if the book doesn't actually care about the setting? ? Overall a very long read.
