As my hubs will tell you, I’m always a little late to the party. But, the kind souls at @ktliterary sent me a much anticipated book, MICHIGAN VS. THE BOYS, so I decided to jump aboard the #slapshotreadathon. - 🏒. Synopsis: When a determined girl is confronted with the culture of toxic masculinity, it's time to even the score. - 📚. Michigan Manning lives for hockey, and this is her year to shine. That is, until she gets some crushing news: budget cuts will keep the girls' hockey team off the ice this year. - 📚. If she wants colleges to notice her, Michigan has to find a way to play. Luckily, there's still one team left in town ... - 📚. The boys' team isn't exactly welcoming, but Michigan's prepared to prove herself. She plays some of the best hockey of her life, in fact, all while putting up with changing in the broom closet, constant trash talk and ?harmless? pranks that always seem to target her. - 📚. But once hazing crosses the line into assault, Michigan must weigh the consequences of speaking up --- even if it means putting her future on the line. - 🏒. A determined girl?!? Hockey?!? I really didn’t need to read further to be interested. Most of you know that for years, when we lived in the Bay Area, hubs and I were San Jose Sharks season ticket holders. I used to call it marriage therapy. Seeing a live hockey game is truly fun, and it’s something I wish we could do more often. - 🏒. I promise to give you a full review of the book as soon as I finish it. But, for now, the kiddos are on Fall Break, I have an excellent book to read and hockey season has started! Here’s to Fall! - 🏒. 🏒. 🏒. #readathon #bookstagram #bookreview #ktliterary #michiganvstheboys #yabooks #ireadya #kidscanpress #carriesallen #booklr #fallbreak #hockeybooks #tbr #currentlyreading #beartown #hockey https://www.instagram.com/p/B3SaxdwgGoa/?igshid=g1xqs0xfwpnh

Head over to the blog (link in bio) today to see my recap of @pasadenalovesya! I’m giving a sneak peak right now by showing off my book haul! I found CITY OF GHOSTS at the Friends of the Library, but the rest of the books were from the book blitz at the end of the day! A few of these books are ones I’ve been wanting to read for a while now and a couple are completely new to me! • • Have you read any of these books? • • • #pasadenalovesya #plya19 #fratgirl #kileyroache #inkyardpress #austenland #midnightinaustenland #shannonhale #bloomsbury #torightthewrongs #sherylscarborough #torteen #cityofghosts #victoriaschwab #scholastic #noplacetofall #jayerobinbrown #harperteen #epicreads #thebloodspell #cjredwine #michiganvstheboys #carriesallen #kcploft #bookhaul  #bookstack #bookstacks #booksandleaves #bookobsessed #booksbooksbooks
