Intense pressure
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Tori's mother won't get off her back. In many ways, she reminds me of my own mother. Even though I've never been an athlete my mother pushed me when it came to school. And I was never able to meet up to her expectations. And i could relate to the way Tori felt about how her mother kept her away from her father. The book has a lot of figure skating in it too, and that was aweseome being as i'm a big fan. Even some romantic parts....and it showed what a different life Tori has from all the others. I got it at a school book fair in sixth grade. Read the book. It's the first book I read in the series, and I've read them all. It remains my favorite.
Good but not the best

It's a very good, but definitely not the greatest. The suspense builds up as Tori tries to figure out who the mysterious stranger who's watching her at practice is. A pretty okay plot.
Good book as always

This is another good book by Melissa which deals with a very common problem that all athletes have... the pressure from competitions and mostly the presure from their parents.Being a former swimmer my self i remember what it was like to be waken up at 5 in the morning b4 school and I remember the pressure I used to get from my parents during training....Maybe an athletes parent should read this for a change!!!!! All in all a good book.
very good
