This is the quirkiest book I have ever read. Describing it--hive mind narration by the 1989 varsity women's field hockey team in Danvers, Mass, as they play with witchcraft to boost their odds towards state championships--does not begin to harness the experience of reading it. Non-stop 80s references and the prose never takes a breath. It's like The Breakfast Club but faster and richer. Somehow the 10+ characters are all so uniquely voiced (written and in the audio as well) that I never forgot who was who. And that sisterhood-friendship made me want to be part of the team so bad.
