Not matter how hard you try to cover everyone, there’s always someone who’s freezing.” (Beartown) “Being a parent makes you feel like a blanket that’s always too small. There are many characters with an equal number of points of view, and it adds to the story instead of bogs it down like you might expect with a less talented author. I don’t know whether to congratulate the author or the translator. It’s just their Goliaths are different than what I thought they would be.īoth books are tremendously well written. I was expecting a story about a small-town hockey team and the distractions that happen on their way to beating their Goliath.Īctually…that is exactly what this story is about. I didn’t expect what I got with Beartown and Us Against You. It’s about their parents who are trying their best but still feel inadequate. It’s about teenagers growing up the hard way. Beartown and Us Against You are not about hockey.
