Flip Side | Shawn Johnson
12 posts | 12 read | 10 to read
From gold medalist and reality TV star Shawn Johnson comes a debut YA novel inspired by her own experiences as an elite teenage gymnast just in time for the Summer 2016 Olympic games. Charlie Ryland has a secret. She may "seem" like your average high school sophomore but she s just really good at pretending. Because outside of school Charlie spends all her waking hours training to become one of the best gymnasts in the world. And it s not easy flying under the radar when you re aiming for Olympic gold especially when an irresistible guy comes along and threatens to throw your whole world off balance. Inspired by her own experiences as a fifteen-year-old Olympic gymnast, gold medalist Shawn Johnson writes a delightfully entertaining novel about chasing big dreams and falling in love, all while trying to keep it real."

I read this to fulfill the "Read a book about sports" requirement for the Book Riot Read Harder challenge. It was okay, but it was clear that the author is an athlete and not a writer.

Shawn Johnson's debut is full of spot-on gymnastics references straight out of Shawn's own experiences training for the Olympics. The characterization could use some work and I found the plot to be a little unbelievable at times but it's still a fun summer read!

I can't wait to read this lol. I'm such a sucker for dance/gymnastics books.

TeaStories Shawn is one of my favorites! You'll have to let me know how the book is. 8y
Nleann5 Will do! 8y
