Each short story published in Athletic Shorts is, of course, about something athletic. However, the athletic element of each story is merely just the platform for deeper, more important and life changing subjects. Each story is focused on weighty issues many young adults are faced with daily. Issues such as divorce, homosexuality, relating to parents, racism, loss of loved ones, loss in general, and more. Each story is interesting and entertaining. Even if you are not into athletics, you will be into this book.
The stories are funny and heartfelt. I would recommend it to lots of people; the stories are easy to relate to, no matter who you are or what you do.
