Book Reviews of My Sergei: A Love Story
Book Review: The most wonderful book about the two best skaters EVER!
Summary: 5 Stars
Once I heard the Katia was writing a book, I vowed that I would but it as soon as it came out. I've always been a great fan of these two. They totally defined pairs skating. It came out around Christmas and I received it from my parents for Christmas, and I started to read it right away. My parents had to tear me away from it to open my presents. These two were just magnificent. Such a joy to watch. I used to get tears in my eyes whenever they took to the ice. Not tears of sadness but tears of happiness. They shared their love to each and every audience and I'm sure everyone appreciated that. I was very sad when I heard that Sergei had died, and I felt sadness for both Ekaterina and her daughter. But each time she skates, she skates for Sergei. How nice! She talks to him periodically, and even though he isn't here in physical form, he forever will be in spiritual form. I loved the way her book detailed each account in her life. Growing up, detailing everything that happened in her life, and finally when she was paired with Sergei, and the feelings that blossomed along with that. Both Sergei and Katia are both beautiful human beings and brought so much to their sport. I regard them as the BEST pairs skaters that ever lived because they transferred their love from real life onto the ice which made their performances so magical and easygoing. Katia was so honest in her book and that proved that she is just not only a figure skater, but a person as well with feelings, bad or good. I commend her for sharing her and her and Sergei's story with the rest of the world. It was truly a fairy tale, just as she said. I recommend this book to anyone. It is the best book I've ever read. It wasn't fiction, either. It was true-to-life. That makes it even better! Best of luck to Katia and Daria and may Sergei rest in peace in heaven, as he is their guardian angel and will watch over them forever. Sergei, I want to know that you left a lasting legacy for the world. I thank you for giving me the chance to watch you and Katia grow as performers, husband and wife, and parents. God Bless!
