Bullet Review:

Gabby Douglas is awesome; her "memoirs" (read: juvenile summary of her life including some awkwardly candid opinions of her absent father) not so much. I'm sure young people (teens or younger) will enjoy this, but I found myself cringing at the language and bored stiff. A shame because Athlete Gabby is Gold.

Very glad I only paid $1.99 for the Ebook.

First off, the author was only 16 when she wrote this. I would say that given that information, this was a good book about her life to becoming an Olympic gold medalist. It is geared for those young girls who are looking at wanting to become an Olympic gymnastics. It was inspiring. The only thing that was distracting was how abruptly most of the chapters ended.

I'm not going to finish this book. It is poorly written. The sentence structure is all off, the stories jump around, the writing seems childish somehow, and there are too many bible references for me. I think this came out when Gabby was around 18 or 19, and they should have had her write this when she was older.
