5⭐️ I absolutely fucking LOVED this book! As a tennis player, this was so freaking cool to read!!!!!! TJR knows how to write one captivating story!

I do not know how people who don’t know tennis would read this book and know what’s going on. But if you do understand tennis, this book is freaking awesome.

Carrie Soto is kind of unlikeable but I feel like the characters that support her give her enough humanity to forgive how flawed she is.

Her dad!! What a man! I just loved him so much ❤️

TJR is the only person who will ever make me care about tennis...or sports in general.

absolutely loved the character of Carrie Soto. she should've been so unlikeable, but she really resonated with me and i fully understood her. she worked hard to be the best and wanted to continue to be the best. her grit was admirable and her passion, determination, and personality never changed. i also loved how it was never obvious whether or not she would reclaim her throne .
