No spoilers: *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 25, 2018* QB1 is a high school football sports book written by NY sports columnist and author Mike Lupica. The book is well written and most likely aimed at the teenage demographic as this book’s reading level and content fits there. In fact, QB1 was one of a number of school-supported summer reading books from which our twelve year old could choose. Having also read the book (so my son and I could discuss it) and without spoiling anything, I can describe the book as follows: Jake is a freshman in a Texas high school who feels the pressures to succeed as a quarterback. Jake feels added pressure to perform as his father and older brother have all left their mark as successful quarterbacks and as such are revered in their small Texas hometown. The story progresses mainly as Jake navigates his freshman year and deals with the stresses, politics, and teenage insecurities which both he and the ancillary teammate characters feel. The book also gets into the way life's pressures can affect kids on and off the field. The message is poignant and the storytelling is wholesome. The story, however, is very formulaic from a sports point of view but the personalities of the characters, and what makes them tick, was interesting and speaks well to a middle school or high school kid. Both me and my twelve year old enjoyed the read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than expected *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 13, 2021* I’m not a “sports person” but some of my upper elementary students are obsessed with football. They nominated this book for book club and it was voted in, so I read it. There’s a surprisingly good story here about family, friendship, and sportsmanship. I had to Google some of the football terms that I couldn’t get from context clues, which the kids thought was hilarious, but it helped me model how to handle unfamiliar terms in a novel. Next time they nominate a book by this author, it might get my vote… ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book! Easy Read! *by A***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 28, 2020* I got this book for my 5th grade son and he loved it. He read the whole book in 2 days that’s saying a lot for him. I also read it and was great story telling.
