After working on my book for nearly 2 1/2 years, staring at it day after day on a little computer screen in my living room (which was also my bedroom and kitchen), it finally dawned on me that soon, people other than myself would be reading All the Sundays Yet to Come. People not related to me! People I didn't even know! For a first time author, this is a very mindboggling concept that gave me the heebie geebies. Luckily, some very kindhearted authors gave me some good reviews. I wonder who paid them.

"In this excellent, entertaining and well-written memoir, Kathryn Bertine recounts her career as a figure skater, what it did to her, how she reconciled her passion for the sport with the things she did to keep skating." ...see the rest of this review here

"Everyone wonders what it's like on the other side of the rainbow and what it might take to get there. Kathryn Bertine has taken that journey, and come back with a great story. She illuminates with vivid detail and glossy but eccentric -- and sometimes downright creepy -- corners of the professional figure skating business, and the people who inhabit it. And she comes back with a few lumps herself from the road she chose, or that somehow chose her. But what shines is her indomitable spirit. This is a book about a goal, perhaps even an obsession, and what happens when real life rears its complicated, messy head even as the goal comes into reach."
--Kirk Johnson, New York Times, author of To the Edge: A Man, Death Valley, and the Mystery of Endurance

Living in Oregon, the home state of Tonya Harding, I'm naturally a little leery of ice skating sagas. But this book hits a literary triple lutz. It's insightful, honest, and best of all, irreverent. Well-written, too. A rollicking good read for anyone who's ever played or watched sports...and not just ice skating. It goes to the heart of being an athlete and a young woman.
