Thoroughly Enjoyable
Once I started this book, I couldn’t put it down! The plot is engaging, the descriptive passages are elegant and the characters are interesting and well developed. I highly recommend this book.

Baseball Is the Greatest
Overall, this book is an interesting read. I love baseball stories and read every one I can get my hands on. Expanding on the legend of "The Babe" is an interesting idea. I really like the "RUTH, RUTH, RUTH" part at the end of the book (I won't write more so as not to spoil the story for those who have not read the book yet).
I would suggest that the book be edited one more time. Sometimes the writer mixes up the names of characters which is confusing. And, the flow of the "in game" action is also somewhat awkward. That being said, I think that people who like baseball stories will enjoy this book.

I loved the story! It was a fun read.
I loved the plausibility of this "what if" story and I would recommend it to anyone. What if Babe Ruth had agrandson.
