Gr 9 Up-Jessie's love life is a mess, her little sister needs constant attention, her schoolwork is harder, and she has the added pressure of getting into a good university. Her new hockey team is an AAA division team, which means harder practices, road trips, and tougher teams. Throughout the story, Jessie is constantly struggling to make the right decisions and is very hard on herself to be perfect, which she seems to fail at miserably. The boy she likes stops talking to her, her team turns against her, and her sister hates her. By novel's end, she is able to set everything straight. This story takes readers on an emotional roller coaster. The beginning is dialogue heavy, and the book includes more than a hockey team's worth of characters to remember. Still, the complexity and pressures of the teen's life will resonate with many readers. This title can stand alone, but it may be best to start with Power Plays (Couteau, 2007) to sort out all the characters.-Erik Carlson, White Plains Public Library, NY
