The only downside is that I always want more chapters. This was not what I expected when I tried a sports novel. It's much much better. Instead of a story about a rise to fame and glory we got a story of a scared kid, family, love, and healing. Parts of it made me tear up. The author did an awesome job.

I was trying various verbs.... I suspect the missing word(s) may have been "molest". 😜

having grown a goatee... stroking the beard is oddly cathartic.

This is the strangest novel ever...
