Full Revolution
The pressure is on as competitive figure skater Madison Boone trains for her biggest competition yet, Sectionals in California, where she’ll face off against her former best friend Hannah, who’s at the top of her game.
She doesn’t want to let anyone down as she tries to juggle school, volunteering, a boyfriend and her coaches’ expectation of landing a big combo jump.
After a brief episode of wanting to be a “normal” teenager, a sledding accident leaves Madison with a mild concussion and everyone wondering whether she’ll be able to compete.
Will Madison overcome the pressure and find a way to have it all, including her dream of making it to Nationals, or will find she doesn’t have what it takes to make a Full Revolution?

The example set in this book about a girl who has a severe (not a mild) concussion is disturbing. If you have had a concussion which was accompanied by a loss of consciousness, vomiting, severe headache, aversion to lights, loss of balance and ringing in the ears - resulting in hospitalization, it is not mild. To even suggest that it is okay to go back to skating a week later, just because you have a big competition coming up is reckless and foolhardy. With a concussion like that, a skater should be off the ice for a minimum of a month. No reputable neurologist would ever sign off on a skater returning to the ice within days.
The United States Figure Skating Association has a concussion policy and recently finished a three part series on concussions (available on their website) which should be required reading for all skaters, their families and coaches. You only get one brain.

Good read for skaters,but not very realistic
Good but not earth's nattering. I would like less fantasy and more reality. The reality of training to be a skater is more interesting.

Not as good as book 1
Had to put this down several times. it just felt very whiny and internal. The heroine complained about everything, just weird for someone who wants tho be an elite competitive skater. She also seemed very unmotivated until the end. Tedious read. Hope final book is better.
