This is an honest review, and my first book by this author.
I felt like this book had a lot of potential. The concept was great, the spice was hot. But for me personally the baseball puns were OVER THE TOP. I get it guys, you love baseball. Baseball is your life. Nothing exists (even s@x) without baseball. The puns with bats and bases and balls I’m practically every chapter were too much for me.
I also felt like it needed another edit. Some weird sentence structure and wording sometimes where I had to go back and think, what is this trying to say? Also some repetitive word use.
Bottom line, I didn’t love it. But would I read the next book? If it was just slightly less baseball pun-ny, probably.
