I found this for free online, so I said Why not? What actually brought me to it is the concept of a fictional sport (Exy); I'm not into sports, but I remember reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone for the first time and being fascinated by Quidditch (weren't we all?). So there's a book about a fictional sport; what could go wrong? 
 Many things, actually. My main issue was the writing. For a book that is recommended for fans of The Raven Cycle, The Foxhole Court completely lacks Maggie Stiefvater's dreamy writing style. Nora Sakavic's writing is average at most. Actually, it read very much like fanfiction. Don't get me wrong, I've read and enjoyed my fair share of works of fanfiction, but most of them have a certain tone to their writing (I can't describe it just yet), and Sakavic's writing shares that tone. Although it makes the book faster, easier to read, it becomes annoying at some point. What I can put my finger on for now is this: fanfiction writers have a tendency to focus on unimportant things. If you've ever read fanfiction, you know how often you come across tedious and unnecessary descriptions of eyes or lips, for example. I felt exactly that with The Foxhole Court. 
 The other day, I was talking to my cousin about this book and I realised that I can't even tell what this book is about besides "Umm...there's a fictional sport?. That's because nothing really happens. The Foxes have a match at some point (view spoiler)[and they lose (hide spoiler)]. They also go to Columbia and do some unrealistic shit (view spoiler)[(because there's no way teenagers can be allowed to drink alcohol in a club) (hide spoiler)]. And they also go to a talk show and I think you know that talk shows are tedious. 
 Another problem that I had was the inability to understand Exy! Exactly, I read over 200 pages about it and I still can't describe how it works or even picture it in my head. Lacrosse? Ice Hockey? Football? I really don't get it... 
 Is nobody going to mention how unrealistic everything is in this book? Anti-psychotics don't get you high like that. In sports, doping is punished with disqualification. One cannot just "shake off a concussion". A small child couldn't (view spoiler)[burn his mother's corpse (hide spoiler)] just like that. A sport doesn't become popular in, like, 30 years. In what universe does this series even take place? 
 What I did enjoy about the book is the concept of forming a sports team with children who come from broken homes. I pretty much like Neil and Matt and Dan, but I'm constantly annoyed by Andrew. I don't get how tumblr is head over heels for him, because he's an asshole. Also, thanks to tumblr, I know which one is the big ship in this series and... I don't ship these two people at all. (view spoiler)[Andrew has such a shitty attitude towards Neil. No, not only is he constantly rude towards him; he also has Neil drugged, then has his friends sexually assault him, and threatens to "break" him, whatever that means. (hide spoiler)] No, I'm not on board with this ship. 
 Anyway, I was talking about stuff that I like, and there's one reason why I'll keep reading the series: this sounds like a story about healing; not forgetting the past, not burying it, but healing those wounds.
