challenging emotional reflective tense slow-paced

4.5

This book shows all the struggles that are happening in her life, coming out, school, orchestra, and figure skating. All while having to keep everything balanced. I think this a great book that goes deep into the feelings of a young girl and really shows lots of different moments and feelings that are happing. 🤍

This is the most beautiful and touching autobiography I have ever read.  Walden's storytelling was amazing.  The strong sense of voice mixed with the simple yet extremely communicative art style sealed this as a five star for me.  In every aspect I could feel how this book was a raw release of emotion.  I am so glad that this was my introduction to Walden's work and I cannot wait to explore the rest of it

I really enjoyed this! As someone who was a competitive dancer, I could relate to a few different aspects of a sport that takes a lot out of you, especially when you're not sure you even want to do it anymore. The ending really got me; there were a lot of things Walden said that resonated with me. I wish all the best for her, she deserves it.
