Check, Please! #Hockey, Vol. 1 by Ngozi Ukazu

Bitty is an exceedingly charming vlogger, former junior figure skating champion, baker, and hockey player; he is also a student at Samwell University. In this graphic novel, Bitty takes us through the highs and lows of being a student athlete on a competitive hockey team as well as his growing attraction to the temperamental but very good-looking captain, Jack.

This book came to be after a very successful Kickstarter campaign for Ngozi Ukazu’s popular webcomic series of the same name. This coming-of-age story perfectly captures the joy of college and friendship with the complications of second-guessing oneself on a consistent basis. The artwork is simple, colorful, and seamlessly flows from page to page. Easily read in on sitting, this is a book you’ll gobble up and want more of as soon as possible!
