This novel is about eight women/girls that are fighting in a woman's boxing tournament.  Each chapter is a fight between two of the women.  It details the fight, but it also gives back story and future story of each of the women.  It was a very interesting way to write a book that I quite enjoyed.  I liked all of the characters and was interested to read about them.  The fighting wasn't as much as I thought it was going to be and I appreciated that.  Going into this book I wasn't sure if I would like it, but I was pleasantly surprised.
