For someone who’s good with guns, shooting champion Vera Koo was initially afraid of them. However, she turned her fear into a skill after taking a firearm safety course. “The Most Unlikely Champion” details her ascent to success.
In Koo’s memoir, she details that her professional and personal triumphs did not come easy. She was expected to follow the traditional Chinese culture she was raised in and become a wife to a husband. She also faced immense pain, betrayal, and tragedy she did not foresee.
Instead of losing, Koo broke away from tradition and became her own woman. She faced every challenge thrown at her with grace, humility, humor, and persistence. All these and her faith in God helped her see success inside and away from the firing range.
Koo’s memoir has gained positive feedback from readers and reviewers. Anthony Avina of the Hollywood Book Reviews commended her for doing a “marvelous job of navigating the complex road many women face when raised on ‘traditional’ values versus the independence and inner power that many women have strived for over the last few decades.”
“The Most Unlikely Champion” is proof that anyone, especially women, can excel at anything they put their minds to, despite the multiple barriers in their way. Learn from her journey by purchasing a copy in selected online bookstores.
