Sounds like it has a lot of heart, which I always love in a book.

Men could have been portrayed in a totally negative way, and they weren't because Jordan had some really strong and kind male friends to offset the sexism.

I love the premise, the idea that a girl is quarterbacking a high school football team, which is just cool. I loved sports when I was a teenager, so this one sounds really good, but I don't always like contemp YA. I'll probably read this one, since I like to try some of those out, once in a while. Your review is great and gives me realistic expectations for the book, which I do think I ought to try out, after all.Cathy Keatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18356112948372149785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3769483260772738867.post-86912755145387641462012-01-21T14:00:39.425-08:002012-01-21T14:00:39.425-08:00Haha omg I love that quote and you're so right...Haha omg I love that quote and you're so right jordan is incredibly likeable to the normal person.

Okay so this has been on my list for a while, but being new to reading (and loving) contemporary, I have held off on it. (Besides the fact that I am already drowning in books that I keep convincing myself I will get to soon) I literally just went to the B&N website and purchased it for my nook, no lie! I have read tons of great reviews on this so it was only a matter of time, but you are one of my go to people for awesome book recommendations.
