i think i know more about gymnastics than you do genius. spent the whole book pointing out the inaccuracies (but also kicking my feet and giggling bc it’s my exact niche and i loved it). loved that i am technically canon in this book bc i went to olympic trials in st louis.

3.0

If you are a gymnast (currently in the game or retired) this book will definitely scratch that itch you may be missing. It’s marketed as a rom com but I think a lot of rom coms that are written in the mid/late 2000’s now encompass deeper themes besides romance. I actually think the romance was minor here in comparison to the conversations about sports environments including emotional abuse, sexual abuse, toxic relationships between our mental well-being and our bodies. I also feel like Avery and Ryan didn’t really have chemistry with each other. I do think Avery should have remained single but that’s just me. Some
of the gymnast terminology flew over my head.
