Review # 1 was written on 2011-02-20 00:00:00 Douglas Freeman You wouldn't have to be a football fan, or a single woman to enjoy this book. Cathy Day uses the intersection of these two truths of her life to explore a larger human truth: that an attitude of hope and persistence is both shaped by all our life experiences, and can be cultivated deliberately. For all that, it's a compelling read. The writing is clear and confident with equally effective descriptions of football, friendship, and dating frustration. As a memoir, it allows us entry to the author's experience while disclosing no more or less than is needed to suit her larger purpose. She committed herself to fit her story into a structure which follows the 2006 Colts season, and pulls this off with no hint of squeezing, stretching, or moving buttons. If you do happen to be a single, Colts fan and Hoosier, as I am, you are sure to love Comeback Season, if only to relive the joy of the 2006 AFC Championship game.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-09-17 00:00:00 Jeremy Oleson This book was very well written and is a light, playful read. The author, an avid football fan, is looking for love. The book follows the Colts through their 2006-2007 season and compares their comeback season to her own love life. What I like about the book is that it is very honest. The author goes through the ups and downs of dating, using dating services and just the truth of being a single thirty-something professional woman looking for love. Being that I am a fellow Hoosier and a fellow Colts fan, it was really fun to read all the IN references and to go through that Colts season again.
