Winning Balance: A Perfect 10

Revisado: 03-09-13

What did you love best about Winning Balance?

I loved the fact that Shawn Johnson was speaking from her own experience all the way through the book. I have read books by other former gymnasts however this book is at the top of my list.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character has to be Shawn Johnson herself. She brings a fresh and exciting perspective to the world of gymnastics and beyond.

What does Shawn Johnson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I just love hearing Shawn's voice from the various interviews on television and I was excited to hear that she was reading her own autobiography. Reading her own book adds a special touch to the story. There were some particularly tough and personal chapters and you could hear the inflection on Shawn's voice as she read through those chapters.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were a lot of moments in the book that particularly moved me but I think the one that I remember the most was Shawn's reflections on her potential career-ending injury. I won't say what it is here because I don't want to give away that part of the story.
A particularly funny moment in the book for me was the decision that Shawn's parents made when it came time to name her.

Any additional comments?

If you are a Shawn Johnson fan you will not be disappointed if you buy the book either in print or through Audible.com ... I have both versions and they are the best value for the money.
