In the heart of an isolated forest lies Beartown, a small yet fiercely proud community that is as resilient as the people who inhabit it. They have weathered storms, both literal and metaphorical, and their identity is intricately tied to a hockey team that represents their hopes, dreams, and aspirations. Within the confines of this close-knit town, the stakes are high and emotions run deep, as the spirit of the game transcends sport to become a way of life.
As the narrative unfolds, tensions rise in Beartown. The team faces not only external challenges but also internal divisions that threaten to tear the community apart. Loyalty is tested, friendships are strained, and the bonds that once united neighbors are strained by betrayal and ambition. Each character grapples with their own demons and desires, unveiling the complexities of life in a town where everyone watches and judges each other's choices.
Amidst the chaos, the novel reveals profound themes of connection, sacrifice, and the enduring power of unity. The inhabitants of Beartown must confront their values and beliefs as they navigate the uncertain waters of competition and rivalry, reminding readers that even in the darkest moments, the fight for belonging and understanding remains a potent force.

I cared about most of the characters i just think the story dragged and was unnecessary. Beartown should've been a standalone
