I love that you don't have to be into sports to understand the aspects of this book. This is such a fascinating read.
The depth in which the author tells the story is captivating. You get a peek inside the grueling lives of football players-the lives we don't see while sitting in front of the tv or in the stands. If you don't like football (like me) this book will still grab you and teach you a bit about how tribalism affects the world we live in.
I loved the football scenes despite not knowing much about the sport other than the basics.
All of the characters stood out, especially The Professor.
I did not enjoy the timeline jumps all that much though I understand why they were needed. This book would work wonderfully as a movie.
This was definitely an intense book and fans of the game will love it. I read this outside my normal genre, but I am glad I did.
