7. Gabby Douglas's memoir chronicles a year-old's journey to the top | Books | The Guardian.

Yet that statement is an indication of the target audience for this book. They are the Douglas faithful, fans who already know every detail of the "journey" but want to reread it again anyway in her own words. The fact that the story is so clearly not in Douglas's own words becomes increasingly problematic as the book goes on. It may be readable, but it's completely inauthentic.

The general outlines of Douglas's progress to London and Olympic gold are pretty well-known. Gabby trains, she's brilliant but unfocused, her mother pushes her on, the rest of the family sacrifice things they like for their baby's dream, the dad leaves for good, Gabby leaves too, but to go train in another part of the country. When times are hard and when are they not? By the time she's counting down the days until the Olympic Games , the chapter headings have moved on from the biblical to the blues.

This is the point when Gabby competes at Madison Square Garden and catches the media's attention. In other words, it's the real turning point of the journey.
