Lose Yourself

De: Vince Wetzel

Narrado por: Ian Siguenza

It’s the final game of the season. All-Star Brett Austen has a chance to secure the first .400 batting average for a season in more than 80 years. However, increasing pressure and his own hubris threaten the apex of his career.

Meanwhile....

A sideline reporter wrestles with a choice between her career and her mom in crisis. A retiring usher takes in his final game before moving in with his son’s family. A lanky 15-year-old can’t understand his future stepdad while pining for a girl from school. A lemonade vendor agonizes over a big score to settle gambling debts and fulfill his daughter’s dreams. An adult daughter navigates uncomfortable family dynamics at home while her father lies in hospice. Will their choices meet the moment?

Complicated

A great story with six different narratives centered around a single baseball game. However, the build up was a bit slow and drawn out. Why not normally a fan of multi narrator books this one might have been better served with multiple voices. Overall worthwhile but can’t say it was 5 stars.
