KT Hoffman recommends
One on One (2024)
Jamie Harrow
"One on One is a perfect balance of the magic and the heartbreak that come alongside loving a sport - the way these teams and institutions shape and carry us, the ways they often fail us, and the difficulty of holding both sides at once. With quiet humor, a patient slow burn, and immense tenderness for Annie, Ben, and the team that brings them together, Harrow's debut is a beautiful ode to falling into trust and love in equal measure, and to taking up hard-won space."
The Art of Catching Feelings (2024)
Alicia Thompson
"Reading an Alicia Thompson book always feels like watching the most elegant of baseball plays - the kind of utter mastery that seems, deceptively, like ease. Explosive, subtle, and quick-witted all at once, Alicia's prose is as sharp as her characters are human, and Chris and Daphne's romance is a stunning portrayal of finding genuine joy and partnership at our lowest points. I didn't think it was possible to love baseball more than I already did, but The Art of Catching Feelings manages to capture everything that makes this sport and this genre special: flawlessly executed fundamentals, an impeccable balance of tension and release, and breath-stealing moments that stick in your chest long after the game, or book, ends."
