![]() ![]() ![]() Jordan's family, though not the main focus of the book, really turned out to be a major highlight for me as well. A heroine like Jordan is so refreshing at over 6' tall and with a bottomless pit for a stomach after so many waifish, model-thin heroines. Also, I love that she eats just as much as the boys. Her team clearly has crazy amounts of respect for her, and it's obvious that she has earned that. I really didn't expect for everyone to take her so seriously, but they really did, and she was in no way a side show or the school laughing stock. Jordan actually reminds me a bit of one of my dear friends in a lot of ways.Īnother thing that I loved was how freaking amazing Jordan is as QB. I am so glad that Kenneally didn't feel the need to make her fit more with the feminine ideal. There is hardly a girly inclination in her body, but she's still unquestionably a girl. When she tries to look nice, she changes from a t-shirt to a plain, fitted shirt. Jordan feels really uncomfortable when she's not wearing sweats or a football uniform or mesh shorts. Jordan Woods comes off as a wholly believable character, partly because she would never, ever dress like the girl on the cover. Despite my utter loathing for the sport, Catching Jordan totally charmed me with its utter adorableness. Basically, it's the worst sport in the world. ![]() Also, it's usually either really hot or really cold. Seriously, I suffered through two years of marching band and those games bore me to tears. You guys, you need to know just how much I hate football: A LOT. ![]()
