I got this book from Netgalley so I can read and review it before it’s published.
For somebody, like me, who isn’t a fan of soccer clubs in England and in general, this book was easy to read, and I never found myself confused with the verbiage.
It’s really cool to see the progression of how Reginald Dwight saw the team play when he was very young, and then ended up buying the club as Elton John, superstar! He didn’t do it for money, he did it because he loved the team and he had a lot of knowledge of the players. One of his first orders of business was hiring Graham Taylor as the manager.
This book provided extra insight to the town, the team, the owner, the manager, and the players. The last chapter provided a where are they know synopsis, and I enjoyed that part.
Overall, I enjoyed it a lot. It did take me a few more days to complete it than all of my other reads.
