Why read it?
1 author picked Skating Over Thin Ice as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is such a beautifully written book that combines art and sport, two of my passions. Imogene is a piano prodigy and there wasn’t one moment in the book where I didn’t root for her. The teen love story between her and the suspended hockey player is so believable and not like typical teen romance novels. I liked that Mills didn’t sugarcoat the work that goes into being successful at something. The book was real and honest which made the ending completely realistic.
From Lorna's list on The best books about determination and perseverance.
