I loved this book! The week by week account of the police academy had me crying, laughing and grimacing the whole way through. I connected with Suzie and felt every push-up! This book had a main theme of breaking barriers and pushing yourself to your limit and then some.I loved how Suzie wasn't the fittest or strongest cadet at the academy but sheer determination, grit and heart got her through. It was her drive, ambition and heart that gained her the friendship of other cadets and also earned the respect of the sergeants. She battled through as her fellow cadets and friends stood by her and supported her.She transformed, not only physically, but mentally too, into a crime fighting machine when all the odds were against her. Overall, a story of great courage where you are completely absorbed in every situation and routing for the underdogs as they strive for a career in one of the most honorable professions in the modern world.This is a story of friendship, courage and utter determination that is written in an almost autobiographical style and shows that you are never too old to chase your dreams and if you want it enough, you can achieve anything. Truly inspirational... and a great laugh too!
