This book was received as an ARC from HarperCollins Publishers - William Morrow Paperbacks in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

With Tokyo 2020 Olympics just around the corner, this is the perfect book to read to get inspired. I have heard of the fastest woman alive Olympic competition and knowing the stories of Betty Robinson, Louise Stokes, and Helen Stephens and what they had to do to overcome the adversity from the war and the Nazi organization. This race was not just for their careers but to shape history as we know it. When women were not among the chosen to compete in the Olympics, this story is more powerful than ever to learn about how history has been made and how ti shaped to the world we live in today. I know our community will really be inspired by this novel and will not get enough of it.

We will consider adding this title to our Historical Fiction collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.
