Today’s post is about Icebreaker by Hannah Grace!

Escaping Christmas by Marie Landry

Icebreaker

by Hannah Grace

 

Anastasia Allen has worked her entire life for a shot at Team USA.
A competitive figure skater since she was five years old, a full college scholarship thanks to her place on the Maple Hills skating team, and a schedule that would make even the most driven person weep, Stassie comes to win.
No exceptions.
Nathan Hawkins has never had a problem he couldn’t solve. As captain of the Maple Hills Titans, he knows the responsibility of keeping the hockey team on the ice rests on his shoulders.
When a misunderstanding results in the two teams sharing a rink, and Anastasia’s partner gets hurt in the aftermath, Nate finds himself swapping his stick for tights, and one scary coach for an even scarier one.
The pair find themselves stuck together in more ways than one, but it’s fine, because Anastasia doesn’t even like hockey players…right?

Cute and so hot!
Nathan is definitely book boyfriend material

I resonated with Anastasia a lot, she was very organized and anxious, trying to always be perfect.
Nathan is my new bookboyfriend, he was so cute, always taking care of everyone, Anastasia, his team, his friends. He would go down, but never abandon who he cares about.
I loved their moments together, they were the cutest and I loved their comunication and openess.
The sports aspect was not very developted, not a lot of hockey, and the figure skating part was cool, but also not a lot of details, which to me is no problem.
Aaron can go burn in hell, hate him so much.
And Anastasia’s response to everything he does is the only reason this book is not a 5 stars for me.

Well, that is all for today, I hope you like this post, hope you enjoy this book as much as I did. Feel free to leave your opinion about it in the comments and I will see you next time! 

Bye sassy people! 

 

  • I know that some comments I make about decent guys on my posts are the bare minimum a guy should do, so no, they don’t deserve to be treated like gods for doing the minimum, but at the same time, I’ve read a lot of sexist books and I appreciate authors who make characters that can serve as role models and examples of how a decent guy acts and what a loving and respectful relationship looks like. I believe we should always encourage these authors and bring attention to the ones that still write sexist characters and stories. 
  • I make a lot of comments about sexism and healthy role models in books, but a lot of times these characteristics don’t make the book a bad book and definitely don’t make the author a bad author. Please never shame these authors and these books for these comments, I simply feel that we need to have awareness of the less than ideal situations some books bring us, and not use the romanticized problem as examples of what a relationship should be. Most of these authors are still amazing, and the content they write doesn’t reflect directly with their personal views and opinions. Always make sure to respect and be kind to everyone, even while criticizing their content.

One of my goals in analysing my readings was to talk about important topics, like feminism and consent, because literature, art and culture influence us, and I believe we should always encorage authors who talk about this topics.
