Summary

A collection of the second half of the mega-popular webcomic series of the same name, Check, Please!: Sticks and Scones is the last in Ngozi Ukazu's hilarious and stirring two-volume coming-of-age story about hockey, bros, and trying to find yourself during the best four years of your life.

Eric Bittle is heading into his junior year at Samwell University, and not only does he have new teammates--he has a brand new boyfriend! Bitty and Jack must navigate their new, secret, long-distance relationship, and decide how to reveal their relationship to friends and teammates. And on top of that, Bitty's time at Samwell is quickly coming to an end...It's two full hockey seasons packed with big wins and high stakes!

Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "In some ways, life is the best it's ever been for Eric Bittle, the brand-new, pie-baking, hockey-playing junior at Samwell University. He's figured out his place both on and off the ice, and he's even dating somebody special. But though Bitty is happy, things have been hard: his boyfriend is Jack, former Samwell hockey captain, current professional hockey player, and they've been keeping their relationship a secret for the sake of Jack's career, hiding it even from their own friends. But the pressure is starting to wear on Bitty. In this second and final volume (Check, Please!: #Hockey, 2018), Ukazu follows Bitty through his junior and senior years, capturing his growth, his achievements, and his low points with warmth and humor. The Samwell team remains a near-fantastical haven where toxic masculinity goes to die and hockey is still a driving narrative force. Ukazu excels at drawing action, with whole panels dedicated to a puck's journey across the ice. Bitty's parents, though they love him, are slow to accept his identity, and Ukazu often zeroes in on his baking, which he uses to cope with stress, capturing his hands as he kneads bread dough or cuts pie. Ultimately, though, this is a love story, one with a romance characterized by sweetness and support. Fans new and old won't be ready for it to end."
