Chasing_Pages @4thhouseontheleft That‘s ok, I knew going into it that I might not do all 6 every season but I‘m going to try to for the next one! I had a lot of others to get through the past couple months so I‘m surprised I got that close. Hopefully I do better this next round. 6y

I really enjoyed this middle grade book about a young figure skater. After breaking decorum by yelling at competition judges, Kaitlyn has to deal with the consequences. Forced to join a new skating club, she learns how to be herself, find joy in her dream, and balance in her life. #Booked2018 #featuringAnOlympicSport #LitsyAtoZ

BarbaraTheBibliophage Aww. Sounds good—and don‘t we all want to break decorum every once in a while! 6y
Cinfhen Super cute ⛸⛸⛸ 6y
Bookzombie @BarbaraTheBibliophage Yes, we do! @Cinfhen It was really cute. 🙂 6y

How adorable is Laurie Hernandez! She easily earned her moniker of the "Human Emoji with that effervescent smile. Since she's a Jersey girl and happens to live in my old neighborhood, I couldn't resist this bio. Cute, fun and quick read. It's more for teens, but big kids at heart will enjoy it, too.

Mehso-so

I finally finished my selection for #featuringanOlympicsport for #Booked2018. It‘s not a bad story but I‘m not a big fan of books about sports in any form so... I think it‘s particularly timely in light of this year‘s Olympics with two openly gay athletes on Team USA.

My choice for #Booked2018 #featuringanOlympicsport I‘m not a big sports fan overall so reading a book about one is almost painful but I thought maybe this one would be ok. I thought some skating fans might like the Author‘s Note. 😉

Youth sports are taken very seriously. Whatever the sport of choice, it is a commitment for the entire family. Aspirations are high and the stars are revered. I‘ve seen this with my own eyes. This book reveals the intense love of hockey by a community and the secrets they keep. Well developed characters. Writing that drew me in and kept me on edge until the end. Highly recommend for parents, teachers, coaches. #featuringanolympicsport #booked2018

BarbaraTheBibliophage Great review! 6y
DivineDiana @BarbaraTheBibliophage Thank you! There is so much to consider in this story! 6y
Cinfhen I agree, this read as very true to life unlike Meg Abbott's book about gymnastics 6y
