Thrilling, transformative, fun! The middle dragged a bit, but this was a great read. Fantastic capture of the tension in competitive sports, how time slows and stretches during a match

Started off really strong, but felt like it faded for a while in the middle. I think there was some lost focus trying to give enough attention to side characters, but solid writing overall.

What a surprise, another TJR 5 star book. I am in awe with how well she writes. She knows how to make loveable characters that are human beings and have flaws. I don't bawl my eyes out at books for no reason, and this is not am exception. I may not understand tennis but I could relate to Carrie in so many ways which made me love her even more. Don't get me started on Javier, I'll start crying. The book is so well written, so well structured. I loved Bowe and I loved Nicki. This book is phenomenal. I could not recommend it more. The only thing I have sort of negatively to say is that it dragged a bit at the start, but i demolished the last 75% in 3 hours. I recommend this book to everyone.
