30 day book meme - Day 3

[kingstoken]

One with a blue cover

I am not sure if the meme meant blue as in the colour or blue as in sad, but I took the literal meaning. I just finished this novel just recently, I picked it up because a booktuber I watch has talked about it a lot. It is a very interesting read, and I think very well done, but it is not always an easy read. The story covers multiple perspectives and is about a girl who is raped by a star player on the local hockey team, in a town that is obsessed with the sport. You don't need to know much about hockey, in fact you could easily see this story taking place in a small town that worships their football or basketball team. There is quite a bit of build up, getting to know the different characters, but I think that is necessary to understand aftermath, and why certain characters react the way they do. It is not a perfect read, but I still recommend it, if you would be okay with the subject matter.
