Digital Book of the Year: Check, Please by Ngozi Ukazu
From the publisher: “Eric Bittle may be a former junior figure skating champion, vlogger extraordinaire, and very talented amateur pâtissier, but being a freshman on the Samwell University hockey team is a whole new challenge. It is nothing like co-ed club hockey back in Georgia! First of all? There’s checking (anything that hinders the player with possession of the puck, ranging from a stick check all the way to a physical sweep). And then, there is Jack―his very attractive but moody captain.”
From the critics: “A slow-burn same-sex romance is just the icing on the cake (sorry―pie) in this irresistibly fun and utterly charming sports story. Volume two can’t come fast enough.” —Booklist, starred review
