    I actually added some of the recs to my bookwyrm, which I did not expect

    Bobby “Bobbo” McMann may be new to Seattle, but he is absolutely not new to serving looks. He stepped out of that Kraken-logo-adorned Toyota and the fans (and media, let’s be honest) drew in a collective breath. A simple black turtleneck paired with tuxedo loafers and cargo pants, and a typical hockey player beanie was all it took for me to know he’d be my best dressed of the night– and he was.

    Bobby’s Rec: We Breed Lions by Rick Westhead

    A raw, honest look at toxic hockey culture and how it came to be. Westhead does an excellent job laying out the facts, interviewing people who experienced everything within this novel, and not sugarcoating. It’s an extremely hard read, but one that every hockey player and fan should read.
