This novel will take you back to the 80s, for a story of the Danvers High School field hockey team and Emilio Estevez – or at least, a notebook with his image on the cover. With their hearts set on making it to the state finals this year, the team takes a lesson from local history to turn things around for their senior year season. Looking at girl power, sexual and gender identity, and race with today’s lens, this coming of age story explores their voyage of self-discovery and friendship.
