“Just Add Water: My Swimming Life” by Katie Ledecky is a memoir that chronicles Katie’s rise to fame as a world-class swimmer. I enjoyed reading about her journey from swimming in a local pool to becoming a successful Olympian. She discussed each of her Olympic experiences as well as the challenges in 2020. She wove in stories about the impact various family members had on her. She seems humble and kind — I’m even more of a Katie Ledecky fan after reading this book.
Three words that describe this book: Inspiring, insightful, motivational
