Gymnast's Memoir Books

[KristyJ]

It'll be a short set of summaries, then! The library listing says the whole book is only 112 pages, and I've got some guesses on font size.

I won't complain too much if it's quite light--at Chapter 25, I'm at 52 pages for the Chalked Up summary. I'm a little worried about not being able to post as regularly with two books, but the 1996 sound fluffy enough to make it feasible

You could alternate, if you want a truly polar experience

I have the Lilia Podkopayeva book and could summarize if anyone is interested?
Or the Alexandra Marinescu book?

Would love that, thank you! Either or both

 

[QuietColours]

Yes, please!

 

[Denn]

I have a chapter about that book in my own book that I'm currently writing. So insane

I am writing a book about your books, and I literally have a chapter about that chapter!

 

[Amber]

Would love that, thank you! Either or both

Ok I will do both eventually, if people are interested but first I have to finish the current one

Or the Alexandra Marinescu book?

That would be wonderful!

Or the Alexandra Marinescu book?

Yes, please, thank you! Especially Marinescu, as that one is so difficult to find. Maria Olaru has a book as well, would you happen to have hers also?

 

[QuietColours]

Okay, both of Dominique's books are in, just in time. I'm starting them now; I'll probably start posting late next week.

After Moceanu, should I do the books Miller wrote by herself, or are people interested in moving beyond the Mag 7?

 

[KristyJ]

I confess I am currently catching up on Moceanu's books after our furnace decided to leak all over our basement floor- yay cracked heat exchange- and haven't thought ahead too far, but something non-Mag-7 has appeal at this point.

 

[Amber]

Sorry have been very busy at work, should have more time late december to end one and start one

Whatever gym bios you can get your hands on will be fine with me. These recaps have become such a fun part of my day the last few months; I truly appreciate your efforts!

 

[rlayt]

We are all enjoying them.

I will see what I can get next, looking beyond the Mag 7. I have 11 days of religious and federal holidays, 3 family birthdays, and 9 days of family visiting between now and January 5, plus taking on some new responsibilities at work. If I'm smart, the next book will start first week of January. I'm not always smart, but know the schedule might be a bit wonky if I start posting in December
