Kulti
A professional footballer gets her childhood idol as coach, and he turns out to be difficult.
Sal Casillas grew up with a poster of Reiner Kulti on her wall, and now the retired German international is coaching her professional team and barely speaking to anyone. Zapata is known for slow burns, and this is the slowest: hundreds of pages of proximity before anything is admitted. Self-published and passed hand to hand until it became a genre landmark.

This is the greatest friends-to-lovers book of all time. There, I said it. We have a professional soccer player and her legendary coach. He is hard to read and she is oblivious to his affections, so there is no end to the delight at the big reveal.
