Loved it! Devoured it in one day, I tried to put it down and actually clean my house, I think I started sweeping the floor 3 or 4 times, before I finally gave in and spent some quality time on the couch while the kids made a mess.

I received this book as part of the LibraryThing Early Reviewers program, requesting it because the description made me assume it would be akin to a novelization of the kind of movie that features a rag-tag group of youngsters who come together to form a winning athletic team and learn life lessons along the way, with the added bonus of checking in on them 20 years later and finding out how they turned out. However, the book is filled with many digressions about the history of Seattle, cocaine and crack, hedge funds, gentrification, the Pentecostal religion, the criminal justice system, the Seattle school system, and modern masculinity. While it's very informative to his story, and helps to round out the situations faced by himself and his teammates, these portions can seem sort of dry and irrelevant. The story shines when he relates the actual experiences of himself and his other subjects within this framework, and you can't help but wish he'd included more of these and less of the historical stuff. In each chapter, after Merlino has laid out the topic to be commented on, he includes a paragraph or two about how one or more of the guys dealt with the situation. Throughout, I found it difficult to keep track of which guys were which and how they had commented on an earlier topic, especially JT and Damien, as they were the most similar. A few more photographs would have been welcome, too. All in all, though, if you approach the book as more of a sociological study of race relations in Seattle, with an emphasis on how they affect a specific group of individuals, you can certainly see that it delivers. For a debut author, who is extremely close to his subjects, the result is largely a success.

"The content of lyric poetry, Hegel says, is the poet himself; he gives voice to his inner world so as to stir in his audience the feelings, the states of mind he experiences. And even if the poet treats 'objective' themes, external to his own life, 'the great lyric poet will very quickly move away from them and end up drawing the portrait of himself.' . . . the notion of lyricism is not limited to a branch of literature (lyric poetry) but, rather, designates a certain way of being, and, from this standpoint, a lyric poet is only the most exemplary incarnation of man dazzled by his own soul and by the desire to make it heard. I have long seen youth as the lyrical age--that is, the age when the individual, focused almost exclusively on himself, is unable to see, to comprehend, to judge clearly the world around him. If we start with that hypothesis (necessarily schematic, but which, as a schema, I find accurate), then to pass from immaturity to maturity is to move beyond the lyrical attitude. "

Love the man, but goodness gracious! This is a tough one to get through! It is a bit philisophical and those are tough for me to complete. The message is a great one, but it is successfully conveyed in about the first 50 pages. The rest of the book is just driving that message home. Skip this one or save it for later once you've already read - like - ALL his other books!

first read this book when I we eleven. twenty years later it is still just as amazing and brings back so many memories. It still leaves me crying at the end when they all go their own ways again.
Again, for a novel based on a video game, this was great. Perry does a wonderful job of filling in back stories and giving the characters more personality. Any Resident Evil fan should read these.
