Match Point by Katherine Reilly

DID NOT FINISH

---

The fact that this book was recommended for fans of "Icebreaker" was a big red flag for me, but I decided to give it a chance. I was expecting something similar to "Challengers," but instead, I got a strange soap opera. I believe that prologues are unnecessary unless the information can't be woven into the main story, and this book's long, boring prologue was definitely not needed. It was painfully cliché and ruined my first impression. Unfortunately, the book didn't improve much after that. The female main character had too many issues and was constantly whining about something. This was not the light, summery tennis romance I was hoping for.
