6/4/2023 0 Comments Kulti by Mariana ZapataThe slow build of Sal and Kulti’s friendship is amazing and as many people know, Mariana Zapta is known as the queen of the slow burn and this one is a slow burn for sure, but supremely satisfying! I’m basically like a lot of the other people in the US who only watch when it’s the World Cup haha, but I didn’t care that the majority of this book takes place while Sal is playing soccer, at practice, training, or thinking about soccer because it is that good. Before she knows it, Kulti basically only talks to her and only trusts her. Now Kulti is the grumpy assistant coach and despite his standoffish attitude, Sal continues to be nice and pleasant with him. When he was a breakout star at 19, Sal was a young girl in love with soccer and plastering Kulti’s posters all over her walls. Kulti is not only a German international soccer superstar who retired 2 years ago, but Sal’s childhood crush. When her team gets a new assistant coach, she is shocked when she finds out is non other than Reiner “The King” Kulti. She’s a 27 year old professional soccer player in Houston. I don’t even know how to put into words how much I love this book! Kultiby Mariana Zapata was on my tbr for a while and I knew I’d like it since I absolutely loved The Wall of Winnipeg and Me, but I don’t think I was prepared for how obsessed I would be with it.
