(4) YA Told through the blogs of soccer star/high school journalist Carla and quarterback Jerry, the cautionary novel delves into the challenges of sports injuries. Carla reveals her own injury struggles then investigates and exposes issues surrounding contact sports and head injuries. The sports physiology and concussion information is engaging and thought-provoking, but the blogging format with stream-of-consciousness writing may wear readers down.
