Honestly, I loved it. I was reading the book as if I was watching actual tennis matches, literally on the edge of my seat. I loved the little cross-overs of the other books in the TJR Universe.

I think I had a hard time cause she reminded me a lot of myself at times but I could see what she needed to do to be better, and in turn what I need to do. But I kept going because something about Taylor Jenkins Reid’s writing just showed me “there’s more to come. There’s far more to this story than just tennis” and I was right and I’m really glad I didn’t DNF it
But it’s still 4 stars because it did take a while for me to actually start enjoying it, but once I did I flew through it and finished it very easily. If you’ve read other books by Reid and liked them, I can safely say you will like this as well, it’s definitely different from Seven Husbands but it’s still an amazing story that in the end if you look at it the right way can teach you a lot, even if you’re angry at it because of it
