librarybonanza 's review for:

The Breakaways by Cathy G. Johnson
3.0

Age: 4th-middle school
Art: Drawing, comics
LGBTQ: Trans boy (side character)

Although there are an extraordinary amount of characters vying for page time (one could say too many), Faith takes the helm as a shy, fresh middle schooler experiencing her first couple weeks of school. Although the story centers around her soccer team, I would not recommend this to soccer fans because, turns out, no one on the team is a fan.

Fans of stories with various perspectives or "misfit" middle schoolers will enjoy this school story.
