Meet Me in the Penalty Box
by Cali Melle
I have to stop reading books I find from booktok bc they always always let me down. This book sucked and I genuinely question the people that rated this highly. Have you ever read a decent book before? Do you not care about character development or any realistic plots? I only finished because I hate to DNF but it was a CHORE.
Instead of using words to actually move the story forward or show growth in the characters, the author added these superfluous descriptions of actions that made sentences feel extra long. Like I came off the rink through the door and sat next to my teammate and put down my stick and removed my mouth guard and grabbed my water and drank it while also watching the game. It’s like when a kid has to do the pbj exercise where they write the how-to instructions and have to include every minuscule detail. Just say they took a break
