Kaceey's Reviews > The Winners

There’s really nothing I can add to what’s already been said. Simply put…this was a beautifully written novel that will appeal to all readers regardless of age or background.

I fell in love with these characters in book one Beartown and continued to follow their journeys through book two, Us Against You Now as the final chapter of the trilogy plays out, I’m left emotionally spent.

There is so much to take away from this series. And every reader will find an aspect of this book that relates to them. For me it was the strength and determination of the families. How no matter what was happening in the community around them their loyalty to the family core held strong.

My favorite character was Ana, so fierce and loved so deeply. Her friendship with Maya was beautiful and sincerely warmed my heart.

I listened to the audio as I did for the entire series. Marin Ireland is incredibly gifted as she unfolded the tale, taking you deep into these hockey towns bringing every character to vivid life.

Once again, I am floored that this entire trilogy was written in Swedish and so exactingly translated to English (and I’m sure many other languages). Nothing was lost in translation. Every nuance and heartfelt moment shined through.

Hands-down one of the best series I’ve read. Sad to see it come to an end but so looking forward to seeing where this author take us next.

A buddy read with Susanne that we both loved. The discussions were fascinating as we discovered what parts of the book touched us the most…and yes they were different parts!

Thank you to my local Library 🎧.
