This book was given to me by a friend for my birthday, and I'll admit I was a little wary, but she assured me that I would like it. (Thanks Nina/Aaron) AND I LOVED IT. It's not my normal type of book, being told by a sports-playing teenage boy, but I enjoyed it anyways. It reminded me of a more explicit Percy Jackson... not 50 shades type explicit, but sex and cussing were probably the two most talked about topics in the whole novel. Or rugby, which by the way, sounds fascinating and something I will never play.
The protaganist is Ryan Dean West, who plays the postition of wing on the school's rugby team... therefore earning the nickname Winger. He attends Pine Mountain Academy, a boarding school for rich kids. It's the beginning of Junior year at PM and Ryan Dean has been put in O-Hall, the place for the trouble-making students. He's seperated from his two friends, in love with and lusting over his best friend, and roommates with a beast of a boy named Chas whom he plays rugby with.
I literally loved every moment of this book from beginning to end. It was a little uncomfortable at times to read all the pervy things he thinks about other girls, but they were also humorous and he gets called out for them... sometimes even by himself. Other than that, no complaints.
Also, there's a hell of an ending. Just really well-written, the book could've ended there and had no sequel and I would've been happy, if slightly disappointed I was done with Ryan Dean, Joey, Annie, and Seanie. Highly recommend.
