I'm obsessed with this book. Conventionally Yours is my favourite Annabeth Albert book for sure!
I used to be really into trading card games, but my friends were never into it so I'd eventually stop playing. So this book took me by surprise when I realiesd it was about a card game! It made me want to play them again; Online ones are probably the way to go for now with Covid.
Conrad and Alden are both a part of a group that plays and creates content for a popular card game called Odyssey. However they don't see eye-to-eye with one another. Setting up the enemies part of the enemies-to-lovers that we all love so much.
Professor Tuttle owns they game store they meet at, along with the blog "Gamer Grandpa", that they create content for. Tuttle manages to score tickets to a massive Odyssey convention, and plans a roadtrip to Las Vegas.
Unfortunate circumstances lead to Conrad and Alden being the only ones taking the car out west. Lucky for us, this sets in motion an awesome roadtrip where there bickering eventually leads to a deeper connection. Their relationship blossoming on as the trip progresses.
This book was great on all accounts. The diverse characters, the roadtrip accross America, the convention and tournament itself, and the relationships were so well fleshed out.
Looks like everyone in the group will get their own book :D
