All Thirteen: the Incredible Cave Rescue of the Thai Boys' Soccer Team | Christina Soontornvat

so-so

Some young boys on a soccer team in Thailand were stranded in a cave in 2018 while exploring with their coach. The country and people from across the world came together to save them. Obviously, the rescue was incredible and it‘s a wonderful true story, but the book is written in a way that made it drag even though it was short.

Texreader What a shame! I watched this story unfold with such dread and so happy they were rescued 3w

AvidReader25 @Texreader It‘s not a bad book! Just maybe for a YA audience and not well paced. 3w

Go for the Goal: A Champion's Guide to Winning in Soccer and Life | Mia Hamm, Aaron Heifetz

I‘m reading this during a break from reading Pat Conroy‘s book “My Losing Season”. Conroy‘s obsession with basketball is not my own. My passion is soccer so I‘m having a terrific time reading Mia Hamm‘s book about my favorite sport. 🥰

Endearing and humorous.Britt-Marie Was Here is a story of how we survive grief, and change but most importantly it's about community, and belonging. I really enjoyed the audio

BarbaraBB Lots of days left in July to fill that empty calendar 🤍. I‘d recommend

The Passengers: A near-future thriller with a killer twist from the bestselling author of THE ONE

5mo

bookandbedandtea @BarbaraBB I LOVED The Passengers! Marrs is one of my favorite authors. I might reread that one just because I liked it so much, maybe it will be the kickstart I need! 🧡 5mo

bookandbedandtea @TheBookgeekFrau I'm not a fan of my lack of ability to focus- or care- about whatever books I've tried to read recently. 😭 5mo

BarbaraBB Or you can try this one if you haven‘t already. It‘s just as good

The One

5mo

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea I Hate when that happens! I've unfairly tossed aside many books over the years bc of that mood 😣 The last time I felt like that I bought a crossword puzzle book and did crosswords for a couple of months 5mo

The Long Game: A Novel | Elena Armas

pick

This started slow for me but picked up and I was loving it by the end. A (retired?) soccer star with serious Roy Kent vibes is hiding out in a small town finds himself stuck with a disgraced marketing executive as they work with a U10 girls soccer team and shenanigans ensue. Great banter, thoughtful back stories and cats and goats (oh my!) make for a charming read. #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Kristy_K Omg yes, definitely Roy Kent vibes! 6mo

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 6mo

I‘m not always the biggest fan of a slow burn romance, but this was done really well in my opinion! Loved both the main characters and side characters.
