I listened to the audiobook with Billie’s narration, which really added to the emotion of hearing her tell her story. I appreciate how throughly she contextualizes her story in the activism and social turmoil she had live through. I like that she didn’t shy away from discussing her own shortcomings. the ending felt a little unfocused apart from the very last part, but still i great telling of tennis history, women’s liberation, civil rights, lgbtq+ activism, and women’s sports, among other topics.
