4.0

Rounded up from 3.5 stars. I think my expectations had been too high from all of the praise I saw on social media. Lauren Fleshman is an excellent writer, I used to enjoy reading her blog. She makes some excellent points about women/girls in sports and how we need to be aware of the biological differences that puberty has on a competitive young athlete. Her personal stories also were well told. It’s just something about the book as a whole that didn’t coalesce for me.
