I love this so much!!! It is a beautiful book about an amazing man. Ekaterina Gordeeva and Sergei Grinkov love story was so beautiful!!!! I remember watching them on tv staking when I was a child. The ending broke my heart, but she is so brave to move on like she did. I believe that Sergei is always her true love. ( )

I was expecting sad but it wasn't quite as sad as I had anticipated. I found the life of an Olympic skater in the USSR in the 80s very interesting. I was always finding tidbits to tell my husband!

I found some parts amusing like being bored at a dinner with Reagan and Gorbachev! I was surprised by how they left Daria with her grandparents so often, but I could tell that skating was her life.

This book group read will provide a good discussion for love and loss. ( )

This is a very lovely and moving memoir. There was a lot of ugly crying. I loved their story and it was told beautifully. ( )

This was a beautiful look into the partnership/relationship of Katia and Sergei. Katia came across as open and honest, not afraid of revealing some of her insecurities and flaws. Getting an inside look at the world of competitive figure skating was interesting too. The end was sad but hopeful. ( )

Reread for the second time as I was packing it away. Very emotional. ( )
