I listened to the podfic of this. There are a lot of elements in this story that don't normally work for me (lots of sports stuff, country music, bro culture, Christianity, etc.), but this work just painted such a complete picture of real life that those elements ended up being a feature. I loved this one. A lot. Just so extremely rooted in the mundane and plausible that it feels exceptionally real, and that makes it more beautiful.
