Brace for Impact: A Memoir by Gabe Montesanti

5.0

I wish I could rate this book a 10/5. This book resonated with me on so many levels. As an ex-swimmer, someone recovering from an eating disorder, a queer woman, a new skater, and in recovery from surgery, it is like this book was written for me at exactly this time in my life. Even if you don’t have these parallels in your life, Gabe Montesanti’s story of finding power within themselves transcends sport, gender, and beyond. The best book I’ve read in sometime.
