Gold
by Chris Cleave
This was a great look at female friendship, competitive Olympic cyclists and how the lives of two women and teammates were intertwined and complicated by their dreams for gold. Told in alternating timelines and multiple POVs, we get to know Zoe, Kate and Kate's Star Wars loving daughter who is battling Leukemia. I also enjoyed Zoe and Kate's wizened old coach, he was a fun, crusty kind of old man with a big heart. Great on audio, this was a complicated story of sports, family, friendship and motherhood and just what one woman will sacrifice to win Gold. It's been on my #tbr for a while since I heard it from the Modern Mrs Darcy podcast and was definitely worth the wait!
