Booking Through ThursdayYou, um, may have noticed that the Olympics are going on right now, so that’s the genesis of this week’s question, in two parts:
First:
Do you or have you ever read books about the Olympics? About sports in general?
Fictional ones? Or non-fiction? Or both?
And, Second:
Do you consider yourself a sports fan?
Because, of course, if you’re a rabid fan and read about sports constantly, there’s a logic there; if you hate sports and never read anything sports-related, that, too … but you don’t have to love sports to enjoy a good sports story.
(Or a good sports movie, for that matter. Feel free to expand this into a discussion about “Friday Night Lights” or “The Natural” or whatever…)
No, No, and double no.
I did watch the USA girls gymnastics the other night and I'm keeping up with the medal count but that's about as far as it goes. I also own all my mothers figure skating books but I haven't read any of them.
I read Playing for Pizza which is about a football player. Does that count?

Hi Kimmie!
How did you like Playing for Pizza? I haven't read that one and it looked good.
Kimmie - You are just too funny!! I'm excited to watch the gymnastics tonight! One of my favorite parts of the Olympics!
I think Playing for Pizza counts as a sports book. I haven't read that one yet.
Come see my answer.
