About this deal

ok no. but this book ruined every other slowburn book for me tho. if a book doesn't have the whole strangers to enemies to rivals to acquaintances to hesitant friendship to full-on friendship to best friends to girl is oblivious that guy is in love with her but we readers know that the guy is in love with her to lovers then i don't want it.

The narrator has an easy voice to listen to. I did at times think she sounded a bit too young, but that could have more to do with her having an American accent. I find American women, in general, have very young and sweet voices. Anyways, the narrator did a fabulous job talking with different accents and I had no problems identifying when a character changed. If I was to find fault with the narration, the only difficulty I had was when the main character switched between dialogue and inner monologue. Besides that, it was all good. Read it if you don't mind terrible writing, snail like pacing, almost no chemistry, and loads and loads of sport talk. I, for one, didn't care for the first, have yet to find the point of this, and enjoy football as the next person - hahaha who am I kidding? Have you freaking seen France's team? The guys went on strike for crying out loud *roll-eyes*. Actually, do you want to know a secret? I've been rooting for Germany for ten years.Then again, Jeffrey Dahmer had been attractive, so good looks weren’t exactly the best scale of measurement for an individual’s mental health.” Mariana Zapata tells us the story of Reiner Kulti and Sal Casillas in this novel. Sal is a 27-year-old soccer player who gets her childhood icon, Kulti as her coach one day. She had some fangirl moments initially. She starts to dislike him after she understands more about his character. Later they will become good friends. Will their friendship turn into a romantic relationship? What will happen to Sal's career? Is Kulti an arrogant person as he appears to be? Zapata will give you answers to these questions through this book

Courage is not a monopoly of extroverts. Introverts also dare to come to the forefront when needed. Many famous world leaders like Gandhi, Obama, etc. were introverts. That didn't prevent them from achieving their goals. They showed the courage to face the spotlight and work hard to achieve their goals. We can see a similar situation when a person was an introvert but still successfully played in front of a large number of people in this novel.i seriously needed kulti’s pov every time he was jealous bc he was losing his mind!! especially when sal hugged his friend before him and he got so mf grumpy afterwards!!

oh my- MS ZAPATA THIS IS TOO MUCH MA'AM. they're hugging each other?? when it's not the last chapter?? oh god- i didn’t like the recurring slut shaming in this book - i love sal but she would act like she was better than everyone else and had this tendency to internally call other women “whores” and “sluts” constantly and it threw me off. but i still devoured this book nonetheless <33 Sal and Kulti (aka Taco and German Chocolate Cake) will firstly be trainee and trainer, then friend and best friend and then the miracle will happen. There was a lot of attention given to the minutiae about Sal’s daily life: every thought and conversation, every moment of soccer training and competing - beyond the absolute necessary. I think some of that detail could have been sacrificed for more detail about the interesting events summarised in the 2 minute epilogue. Those events looked worth reading about.I haven't read a book in awhile that has left me so affected, so happy, so...GAH! I LOVED IT, LOVED IT, LOVED IT. I'm feeling particularly confused right now because I want to say so much but I don't know how! So to save time and space, I'll point out what I loved, adored, gobbled up so much: kulti - men that dont speak >>>>. do i need to say anything else?? they will ALWAYS win. his actions spoke way louder than any words ever needed to. This is the first time I am reading a book by Mariana Zapata. I can easily say that she is a master at using multiple romance tropes in her novel. All these tropes gently blend together and make her work a unique creation. This unsurpassable quality will instantly make many readers fall in love with this book. I haven't seen many authors ideally using all these tropes together. If you are someone planning to write a romantic novel, you should use this book as a reference for how to use multiple tropes in your novel effectively. The various tropes used by the author in this novel are The narrator did an excellent job with everyone's voices and did the various accents very well which made the story that much more absorbing and believable.

El niputaideísmo que tiene del fútbol.Quiero creer que ha preferido inventarse los nombres de los equipos y de los torneos para que todo quede en el campo de la ficción, pero de ahí a inventarse las reglas de la FIFA... Pues mira, te inventas directamente el deporte y así no nos dejas al borde del ictus. When you are trying to use the athlete hero trope in your novel, you should ensure that you are getting the basics about the sport correct. Before writing this novel, the author should have done more research about soccer (football). She got some of the basic rules in the game wrong, which will irritate the Soccer fans reading this novel. Two. In both this book and The Wall of Winnipeg and Me, the hero and heroine make each other better people. Authentically, beautifully better. It happens over an extended period of time and each rung in the ladder to being their better selves is SO SATISFYING. Because they SHARE it. And it's balanced between the two characters. Sal’s brother, Eric, however who also plays pro soccer (or futbol as everyone else in the world uses) had an altercation with Kulti resulting in a broken leg for Eric. But her childhood crush burns brighter than her sisterly loyalty. After all, she became a soccer player because of Kulti. He is her inspiration so to have him as her coach? It’s almost a dream come true. Until Kulti shows up.Jasmine Santos is one of figure skating’s most talented, dedicated athletes, overcoming broken bones, family disapproval, and financial woes to continue doing what she loves. But her abominable temper always gets in the way of her potential greatness, leading to her last skating partner dumping her for a competitor. She’s been on her own ever since, until the coach of Ivan Lukov — an international men’s figure skating phenom with enough awards and titles to last a lifetime — approaches Jasmine with the idea of pairing them up together. thankfully Rey doesn't give a shit and does not return those warm feelings, at least initially. the relationship between the two is very much coach & player for the majority of the book which i loved. we get to get inside the mind of a high achieving female soccer player and understand what it takes to get to the level that she wants to be at. and what it would be like if the person you looked up to most in the world becomes your coach. and isn't all that nice to you. El constante maltrato al español. De verdad, ¿es necesario que los personajes hablen en otro idioma y eso se escriba mal? Porque los padres de Sal son hispanohablantes y Mariana Zapata muchas veces escribe en inglés lo que dicen y añade cosas como "...me dijo mi madre en español". ¡Y tan ricamente, chica! ¿¡¿Por qué, entonces, POR QUÉ, tiene que escribir cosas como "alomejor"?!? ¿Pensará que no lo va a leer nadie que hable ese idioma? ¿O pensará que ya por ver que los personajes lo hablan vamos a estar tan felices que vamos a pasar por alto semejantes patadas? Then again, Jeffrey Dahmer had been attractive, so good looks weren’t exactly the best scale of measurement for an individual’s mental health.
