Cracking the Bell by Geoff Herbach. 256 p. HarperCollins Publishers, September, 2019. 9780062453149. (Review of arc)
I try to have a system to manage my arcs and book purchases. Sometimes books get buried in my tbr pile. I was rearranging piles late this summer and uncovered this one. I immediately felt guilty because I adore this author's books and here it had been out nearly a year! My apologies.
This complicated story is compelling from the very first page. Isaiah has a difficult back-story that readers slowly learn over the course of the book. Isaiah is a sympathetic character with understandable anger issues, making poor life choices before finding himself in football. There are no easy answers here and readers will root for him as he tries to find his way. Highly recommended.
