I have not read a story about a female boxer yet so I'm excited to read this one.

Boxing for females! Mmh, that's a good one. Rosilinda seems to be a formidable character. Would love to dive in to her world. Great review

The book seems like as good one, and I love boxing as a sport. I think I would have preferred it if it was solely about the sport. Although getting to know the characters deeply is good, it's just not for me.

I agree with you that background information of carryover characters from the previous book should be provided. This would enable first time readers to understand the book more. Otherwise, I think it is a fascinating book. Thanks for this review.

Proud to Be Me Rosalinda Part 2 seems like a fascinating story. A compelling read for fans of sports-based books involving strong and ambitious female characters. Great review.

It's expected to not trust an opponent, but to question your trust in people who are supposed to support you makes the premise of this story interesting. Great review!

'Official Review: Proud to Be Me Rosalinda Part 2' by Jesse Moreno provides the readers with good background information about the story of a champion boxer! The point that the author addresses how a person's psychological well-being affects the physical side of life is worth mentioning in the review! Also, the point that the protagonist of the story became relatable with her relationship struggles, as mentioned in the review, is remarkable for readers! The ending of the review is positive and encouraging! Nice to learn that the plot of the story is well-developed with a candid message of life for readers!

I love the whole idea of internal psychological conflicts that mirror Rose's actual rounds on the ring. It has piqued my interest. Disappointing that it seems I would have to read the prequel first. Thanks for the in-depth review!

Just like the story of Wonder Woman whom at every point in her life had to face one challenge or the other but the good thing is that she always come out triumphantly.
Having a physical bout to win and also having to conquer a psychological warfare isn't a child play especially when one is surrounded by enemies.

I will have to add this book to my shelf as I'm thankful to the author for this great piece

I really don't like boxing so I am afraid that this book is not for me. The topic is quite original, though.

I fell in love with the book title first. I like the aspects of Rosalinda's life portrayed. Life is never one-sided. And success in one aspect won't always imply success in others. I like that her life's battles outside of her victories in the ring were portrayed. I'd read to find out if she'd win those also. Thanks for your amazing review.

The book seems interesting. At the same time it appears to be really emotional with the main character's inner struggles and well-being which pretty much affected her life both physically and psychologically. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

Rose seems to be a strong competitor, both in and out of the ring. Thank you for your take on this second installment in the series.
