i also wasn't a fan of the abrupt ending... like, you can't just end it right there, author!! i need to know the outcome of one of the big plotlines of the book omg! that left me a bit unsatisfied, especially because the book ended right there. i think if the author had been vague about it earlier in the book and then we got a flash-forward epilogue, i would've enjoyed the book a bit more, but nope. that unfortunately didn't happen. It’s important to choose the right icebreaker for your team. Teams that know each other well may be more comfortable sharing personal information. Newer teams may want to start with lower-stakes games that focus on work-specific topics. For how the author handled important topics like depression, parental expectations, and the pressure of social media. The discussion of the imbalance of privilege between the MC and his love interest/biggest rival in the NHL Draft

Anastasia Allen has worked her entire life for a shot at Team USA. It looks like everything is going according to plan when she gets a full scholarship to the University of California, Maple Hills and lands a place on their competitive figure skating team. Fortunately Icebreaker was a book I was right to be excited about, and turned out to be a story that moved me with more than just the romance part of it. Why: Not only does this help the group get to know each other better and swiftly reduce stress levels, but it also sparks immediate interaction – as the group comes together to root out the red herrings. 3. Three Things (5-10 mins) the baby gays and bis were really cute, i did enjoy reading about them. the rest of the cast was also cute. overall this was a bunch of really polite boys. they literally played a game that was like "for every mean thing you say about the other person, you have to say something nice" and then proceeded to say things like "you smell bad" and "you have beautiful eyes" - truly a case of boys will be boys, in the non-toxic way it's supposed to be One common mistake is assuming that every icebreaker serves the same purpose, in a “one size fits all” fashion. On the contrary, there are many types and styles of icebreaker, each geared towards particular groups and outcomes. It’s smarter to think of them like a set of golf clubs, with each designed for certain conditions.

Con todo, el libro está catalogado como romance (al menos donde yo lo conseguí), así que las escenas de James y Jaycen son muy buenas, eso sí, al ser rivales, su relación no va más allá de provocaciones hasta la segunda mitad del libro, pero antes de eso podemos ver ese «odio sexual» que se tienen. Supongo que a quienes les guste el romance intenso, este libro no les va a encantar, aquí los protagonistas nunca llegan a ser codependientes, este es un libro más del tipo amor libre que amor asfixiante y por eso a mí me gustó tanto. Ya he leído demasiado sobre parejas que se mueren sin el otro y ya me fastidiaron, básicamente sabes que o acaban juntos o acaban muertos (? aquí no puedes anticiparte a nada, que los protagonistas sean tan independientes hace que sea difícil adivinar cómo va acabar su historia de amor o qué decisiones van a tomar. That last point is crucial, particularly when the activity precedes a problem-solving or brainstorming meeting. Icebreakers foster what workplace experts call psychological safety In other words, they create an atmosphere in which colleagues feel free to speak up, to question, contribute and criticize – without fear of censure. But when Anastasia’s skating partner faces an uncertain future, she may have to look to Nate to take her shot. But, grrr, that ending. I'm actually ok that we didn't get an answer to...that one thing :) But the final beat of the story treats this like it was just about the romance all along, and...it wasn't. And frankly, if it was, I probably would have found the ending even more frustrating. The mental health discussion and how that's twisted and magnified by this high-profile, high-pressure sports lifeNo le doy cinco estrellas porque tiene un final abierto y no me gustó que se dejara en el aire algo que básicamente se venía mencionando desde la página uno, como que entiendo porqué se dejó en el aire pero igual no me gusta 🤷🏻‍♀️

I read Icebreaker in a weekend when I wasn’t feeling great, and this story was the perfect distraction. I snuggled up on the couch, and just read and smiled, and read and swooned, and got teary eyes at the end. I blame my cold 😉.While the many benefits of icebreakers are well documented, there are also a number of pitfalls to avoid, too. It’s always a good idea, for example, to start with more simple icebreakers in newly established teams and work your way up. You also want to avoid anything that is too personal or hot-button topics that will foster division instead of cohesion. And always be sure to state the objectives of the task at the start of the exercise, so participants understand what they’re doing and why.
