This book has two storylines, much like the movie adaptation of Lewis’s Moneyball. There is a human interest layer, Michael Oher, and the layer about the sport itself. Lewis explains the importance of covering the quarterback’s blind side, and how that translated into a change in value and pay for offensive linemen (specifically, the left tackle). I know very little about football, and never follow the NFL. I can’t find anyone but the quarterback on the field, nor do I care to. Still, I was fascinated by The Blind Side. Lewis is an excellent writer, and truly made both Oher’s life and the position he played on the field relevant and interesting to any reader.
