A review by kazemiko
Coming Out to Play by Eric Marcus, Robbie Rogers

4.0

I don't know why exactly I thought I'd buy this. It was a fascinating read. Especially when I learned he went to (one year of) college at the same place my ex did. That was fun. I even had to tell her about it and she asked what his major was. I don't think he had one. I rated this book a 4/5 stars and I read it to fulfill the challenge "Read a book with an LGBT character" and this is Robbie Rogers's memoir about coming out as a gay footballer. I liked it. It was good. You felt right along with him, that worry about what would happen if he told his teammates, who were saying all kinds of negative things about having a gay/lesbian sports player, that he was one of those people. I'm glad I've read this.
