5.27.2016 - The Singles Game

The Singles Game

Thanks to NetGalley, Simon & Schuster and the author for the opportunity to read and review this book!

This is definitely a great book to pack on your summer vacation - I loved reading about the behind-the-scenes world of professional tennis.

Charlie (Charlotte) is a young tennis player who has always excelled and done so being the good girl - always kind to opponents and everyone else. After a devastating injury, she leaves behind the coach that was a second mother to her after her own mother's death and turns to a mean, cutthroat coach who promises to push her from being ranked in the 20s of professional women tennis players to the top. But along the way, she must make some decisions that she's not always comfortable with.

The only thing that was a little disrupting in the flow of the writing to me was how Charlie's dad was always referred to as Mr. Silver. Just seemed a little odd.

But again - a light, fun read that you will enjoy! Plus, it's fun to read about the jet-setting world of expensive hotels and no holds barred of the professional athletes in today's world.
