Review

“[A] stark, gripping graphic novel memoir.” ―Washington Post, “These books can help build strong girls―and boys―for today's world”“Tillie Walden's Spinning is an engrossing, gorgeously quiet look back at the 12 years she devoted to figure and synchronized skating.” ―New York Times“Intimate and compelling. A quiet powerhouse of a memoir.” ―Kirkus Reviews, starred review“An elegant, contemplative, and somber graphic memoir . . . A haunting and resonant coming-of-age story.” ―Publishers Weekly, starred review“Quiet and lyrical . . . and deeply satisfying. A stirring, gorgeously illustrated story of finding the strength to follow one’s own path.” ―Booklist, starred review“An honest and intimate coming-of-age story that will be appreciated by tweens and young teens, especially those in competitive sports.” ―School Library Journal“An accessible introduction to the graphic novel form. Older readers will want to graduate from this to Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home.” ―The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books“This beautiful story about sorrow, growth, and triumph will resonate in every reader’s heart.” ―Laurie Halse Anderson, New York Times–bestselling author and two-time National Book Award finalist“This is a beautifully told story that will resonate with anyone who played an instrument, or did gymnastics, or got signed up for skating: these things weren't always what we wanted to do or cared about, but they gave us some focus when everything else was mystery and chaos.” ―Lucy Knisley, New York Times bestselling author of Relish: My Life in the Kitchen“Spinning is spare yet intimate, painfully honest, and oh-so-real.” ―Malinda Lo, three-time Lambda Literary Award finalist author of Ash and Adaptation“Gorgeous and honest.” ―Faith Erin Hicks, award-winning author of The Nameless City

Beautifully drawn, it meanders a bit but it does give you an idea of what it's like to be a young figure skater.Also it's unwittingly an illustration of the difference between Texas and New Jersey's attitudes toward culture and child achievement.The end is unsatisfying, The author is in her very early twenties and that lack of perspective shows. I've quit a number of sports, musical instruments, and hobbies throughout my childhood and teenage years and while at the time being mediocre and miserable at your hobby seems like a tremendous waste of time it never actually is a waste. I remember wishing I'd quit sooner but as an adult I grew to appreciate being able to do things effortlessly and a great deal better than someone who started learning as an adult . And I'm sure with time the author will appreciate the time spent figure skating, she will probably enjoy her skills more when they're no longer an obligatory chore.Also if you enjoyed this book I recommend her webcomic "On a Sunbeam."

Not appropriate for young skaters. I bought for my 9 year old daughter who figure skates and it had f-bombs and inappropriate content. Thankful I gave to coach to read first

Spinning features some lovely artwork, and thoughtful introspection on the author’s late childhood and adolesence. Although it is a story with queer themes, it isn’t really a traditional ‘coming out’ narrative, or romantic drama. It feels like real life with all real life’s banalities. So the narrative benefits from some authenticity, but also lacks drive, and coherence. I enjoyed the fondly remembered coach Barbara, the insights on figure skating’s cut throat atmosphere, and the ‘otherness’ of being a queer young person. The character art is nicely expressive. I wished there had been a bit more variety in the paneling. It felt a bit rigid, with a lot of 2x3 cube pages. I like how the coloring plays with negative spaces. Overall this feels like a solid early effort by a talented author. I look forward to seeing more!

This is the first graphic novel I've ever read, and I enjoyed it. It's really more of a young adult coming of age story, than a story about skating.

Great coming of age graphic novel. Felt real.

Fast delivery and a wonderfully illustrated memoir/comic.

Beautifully drawn, choice of colors is touching and overall I was very much drawn into it <3

a quick but impactful read that will leave you smiling :)
