Bitty is heading to junior year of college and though he has overcome his fear of getting 'checked' on the ice, he and Jack now face new challenges. They must navigate their new relationship while being apart and also decide how they want to reveal their relationship to those around them. Not only that, but Jack and the Falconers are now a big part of the NHL--and Bitty's life! It's a hockey season filled with victories and losses. A collection of the second half of the mega-popular webcomic series of the same name, Check, Please!: Sticks and Scones is the last in a hilarious and stirring two-volume coming-of-age story about hockey, bros, and trying to find yourself during the best four years of your life.

    -Bitty is still SO FREAKING CUTE, I continued to love him to pieces! I liked that this second book was more the relationship and how that element was such a big part of Bitty's life, as I think it would be at that age
    -I know this was only Bitty's POV, but I wanted a bit more from Jack--he seemed to have somehow less personality compared to book 1
    -PLUS their relationship seemed to never have internal tension? It was about secretly dating or not being out or dealing with fallout, no fights over petty stuff or regular stresses?
    -Also, Bitty became team captain senior year, but I wanted to see him 'coaching' more. I guess he has those moments with Whiskey and hazing...
    -Still loved this book, but this one took longer to get through and felt a little more disjointed compared to book 1

    was the PROPOSAL really necessary?? they're so young!!

    We follow Eric Bittle through junior and senior year of college, and his relationship with Jack continues. They're navigating the distance and dealing with pro hockey league, and being in a secret relationship and then coming out
