Sports Book Review: Brooklyn Nine

The Brooklyn Nine – by Alan Gratz

Spanning nine generations with nine different stories in nine innings, this novel starts with American baseball at its grassroots in 1845 and ends 2002 in an antique shop where a boy discovers the value of a box filled with baseball memorabilia.

This title is perfect for the reader who likes a book they can easily pick up and put down as each inning story is linked within the larger novel. It is interesting, intense and makes you want to read just one more inning!
