nirix5Welcome to the World's Shortest Skating Book Library!
Sure, we've all seen Zero Tolerance, My Sergei, Boitano's Edge, and autobiographies of girls who haven't lived enough to have autobiographies... But there is a long-neglected genre of skating literature, newly discovered by skating net.fans around the globe. Here you'll find books by all your favorite skating authors! (The Books they didn't want you to know about!) I've also added a section for the net.posters and chatters, so if you've written a book, or know someone who did (I will not post anything insulting, though!), you can submit that now too! Enjoy, laugh a bit, and feel free to add more, or discuss the ones here! =) Books added on 20 December or after are in the box below. That color-coding was tiresome! My little comments or additions are in italics.
