I really want to give this book 5 stars but I'm still reeling from the events in this book.  Realistically if this was any other book, I'd have given it 5 stars but my heart is still broken and it's not the only reason so let me start from the beginning.  Sidelined is an amazing book.  I was expecting a good story but I was lulled into a false sense of security before getting hit by an emotional 18 wheeler big-rig truck.  I didn't see a number of twists coming and it felt like each one was a new emotional blow that left me reeling.I'm so glad Kyra Lennon wrote this book the way she did just because it really gave me a great look into Bree's mind.  I'd rather the rest not have happened, but it did and I'm still trying to deal with it.  I can't even open up and talk about it because it'd totally spoil the story for you, but I really want to!  The other reason I can't give the book 5 stars is because even though I got to know Bree very well, I still didn't feel like I got to know Jude at all beyond what I already knew about him.It goes without saying Kyra Lennon is a fantastic writer.  She manages to keep an intricate plot exciting and fresh.  I just wish more from Jude had been in the book.  I'm sincerely hoping Kyra will continue this series. I'm not ready to let go of the Westberg gang yet.  If you're like me and like sports stories and emotional reads, this book is a must read for you.
