4.0 out of 5 stars FOR FIGURE SKATING BUFFS AND FANS OF SASHA COHEN..., 3 Mar 2006
By Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Sasha Cohen: Fire on Ice: Autobiography of a Champion Figure Skater (Hardcover)
I have been a fan of Sasha Cohen ever since I first saw her skate a number of years ago. Even at a young age, she clearly stood out from the pack with her artistry and intensity on the ice. She is truly a beautiful skater. So, I looked forward to reading her autobiography.

Written as a first person narrative, the book is somewhat banal, at times, lacking any real depth or insight. Nevertheless, the book will hold the interest of those who are fans of Sasha Cohen, as well as those with an avid interest in figure skating. In her book, Sasha Cohen lets the reader know how it was that she became a skater. She discusses what she had to do to get to where she is today. She also includes a number of tantalizing tidbits about the skating world.

The book is peppered with many photographs of Sasha Cohen, in both black and white and color. This is definitely a book that her fans will enjoy, and it is a quick and easy read. It would make a lovely gift for a young girl or teenager with an interest in figure skating.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grace on Ice, 5 April 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Sasha Cohen: Fire on Ice: Autobiography of a Champion Figure Skater (Hardcover)
Sasha Cohen, a genius on the ice, who burst onto the international scene with her amazing short program at the 2002 Olympics, has never really enjoyed the recognition she deserved. Consistently undermarked at competitions, she has nevertheless by the sheer magnitude of her talent become one the great skaters of all time,medals or no medals (though by now she has her share of these as well). This book gives us a glimpse at the personal side of her story, on the ice and off, replete with high moments and low. Written in an engaging, frank, informal style -- complemented by striking photos by Kathy Goedekin -- it is a wonderful read that should help draw attention to a figure skater whose performances grace the ice with heart stopping beauty.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Read., 1 May 2008
By S. Hall ":)" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Being a dedicated fan of Sasha and a figure skater myself, I did really enjoy the book. I loved hearing about her cute little quirks, like her obsession with ice cream, her ups and her downs. Her happiest moments, and her saddest, such as the '03 Nationals Exhibition.

Being a teenager with a high reading level, I found the book a little too easy, and managed to finish it in 1/2 a day.

Nonetheless, I really enjoyed reading and looking at the pictures in the middle.
