A review by hobbithopeful
Out of the Blue by Jason June
Did not finish book. Stopped at 69%.
Cheating, lusty teens, miscommunication, and completely inaccurate swimming makes this a tough read to swallow.
Why cheating. Just why.
Miscommunication, does anyone actually enjoy that trope? (no seriously, does anyone?)
This book is all about lust and physicalness, to the point it was uncomfy and also in no way a relationship? Like make it make sense.
Nothing in regards to swimming is accurate! Listen I used to swim competitively and it just was all so wrong. You will shave everything when you swim, especially if you are going to swim meets and whatnot. It helps to reduce drag and no coach would ever not make you shave. Swimming is extremely strenuous exercise, it burns so many calories and if you are on the competitive level where you are ranking so high and winning scholarships, you are going to be incredibly lean and lithe. Please I loved the plus sized rep so don't come for me, just look up Michael Phelps diet if you are curious about how much swimmers have to eat to even maintain their bare body.
I regret buying this. I should have gotten it from the library before buying it.
