'The Boyfriend Bracket' Isn't What You Expect — But It's A Winner
The short version: I loved this book! I was also very confused by this book.
The longer version: I was intrigued by the title of Kate Evangelista's new book The Boyfriend Bracket. The tagline on the cover read like a movie poster, "8 Boys, 16 Dates, 1 Perfect Boyfriend."
In a bracket-smashing year like 2018, even the most sportsball illiterate of us [points at self] became familiar. I imagined that this book would feature one quirky girl named Stella, at least eight (thank goodness it wasn't 16!) guys of diverse backgrounds and interests, and 16 dates filled with awkwardness, mishaps, a little fun, and maybe even a little magic. Who would Stella take to Homecoming in the end? I was ready to be surprised! (While also hoping there wouldn't be so much sports jargon that I would get lost.)
