Played in Germany: A Footballing Journey Through a Nation's Soul by Kit Holden

hopeful informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

This was an unexpectedly great read. It kept being suggested to me through Instagram's ad algorithm, and I wasn't interested at first. I don't know what made me decide to get it, but I had to order it from the UK. Each chapter is about a different region in Germany, and while the book frames each chapter about 1 or 2 football clubs from that area, it really dives into each German region's history and how that affected the clubs or the clubs affected the region. Highly recommended, even if you aren't into the Bundesliga, though, it would help.
