Boxing does not interest me. I am also not interested in starting a series in the middle. I am, however, intrigued by how Rosalinda will handle the suspicions she has. Thanks for the review.

This sounds like an intriguing book! A female boxer—I cannot fathom wanting to do that! Rose sounds like a strong person. I loved the line in your review that said, "Rose fought with her hands in the ring and with her heart outside of it." Thanks for the great review!

I am not a fan of boxing but this book is intriguing. However, it appears that you need to read the first book in the series before this one. Thank you for your review.

This book, although part of a series, sounds like a riveting read. I always don't enjoy books with many spelling errors, though. Otherwise, congrats on the BOTD.

Rose’s rising career as a championship boxer. In this volume, the author invites readers to consider another aspect of a boxer’s career. Rose confronted several strong contenders, but she also faced a new challenger

Thanks for the in-depth insight into this book. It doesn't sound like something I'd enjoy reading, but I know others who might.

The second book in the series features the character Rosalinda. She is a championship boxer. This story shows other aspects of a boxer's career such as relational difficulties. An interesting proposal that presents other sides of the life of an athlete.

I can imagine that readers that enjoy boxing or sports in general might find it interesting to see how one's emotional health affects their physical health. I also find that the lack of background information from the previous book is a bit off-putting. The actual subject of boxing is not appealing, so it was difficult to really get into this book.

I do not like the type of sport for young ladies, however, she achieved her goals and handles her challenges very well. A champion with a very strong character and passion for the sport, it's a lovely idea for a novel. The review was very well written.

They sound like superheroes, with heroic names: the rose, the vipress, the cobra, the echo! It sounds fun. I am not really into boxing, so the exposition on all the event setup, boxing matches, and sport details are lost on me.

I find the series to be outrageous, but I think I'm going to give this one a try! with a glimpse of the review I have learned that "Proud To Be Me" Rosalinda Part 2 by Jesse is so motivating. Rose indeed stood out from her struggles, emotionally and physically. Great review @kdstrack

I would like to read this book very much because I think it deserves more recognition. I think this book educates us about how "tough" women are still people, and they still have feelings that we should consider, and they still have inner torments that we can't remove, and the only thing we could do is be there for them as they try to get out that torment. Thanks for the wonderful review!

Latest Review: Between Good and Hollywood by Tyler Patrick Wood

Post by Kirsi Cultrera »

A female boxer as a protagonist is not the most typical choice. This detail really piqued my interest! The connection of physical and psychological well-being is a good pick as one of the main themes in this book. I suppose we all know from our own lives that it is true, but it is interesting to see what kind of effect it has on a professional athlete. This book sounds like an intriguing read all together.

Thank you for the lovely review!
