Boring writing with little details. I couldn't wait to be done with it. I think a tween boy might like it, but there's not much to get excited about. ( )

This is a story about wrestling in middle school. It seems to be one of a series, but it works as a standalone story - and I think I would probably grow bored extremely quickly if the others in the series are on the same theme. Basically this is a story of a boy who joins a wrestling team, finds that its harder than he thinks, perseveres and eventually triumphs. There are no surprises in the story - its almost formulaic. Still there could be readers - especially wrestling enthusiasts - who could enjoy this book. I can't say I was one of these people. ( )
