Million Dollar Throw, a 244 page novel by Mike Lupica, made my heart ache with happiness. Nate, the main character tries to lead his eighth grade football team to a championship, all the while training for his chance to throw a football through a hole and win a million dollars at a New England Patriots’ halftime show. In the clutch, Nate‘s quarterback skills pay off, so he uses the million dollars he won to give his friend an expensive surgery to correct blindness. This sports thriller should be read by those football faithful who don’t mind getting out a tissue.
