Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team, and a Dream by Buzz Bissinger

5.0

Great book! I loved the movie and was dying to see the source material and wasn't disappointed at all. I've seen many reviews that are upset that this isn't simply about the football team but, like the title says, it is about so much more. The dynamic of football in Odessa is amazing and it effects the entire city in some positive and many negative ways. I think the main reason that it home for me was that I was in high school at the exact same time as this book was written. While I can understand some feelings and trends at the time, so much more of it is completely out of whack to me. Even if you have seen the movie or the show, check this book out!
