Yes, yes, yes! Taylor Jenkins Reid did it again. This novel is insanely captivating as a Tennis player and literary fiction reader.
Honor is sometimes just a nice word for ego.
Stunning writing and interesting characters made this book entertaining. The make or break for this book has to be wether you can keep up with an unlikeable main character. This is definitely a critique that Carrie Soto is over top but I was fine with it. Her relationships felt unique and refreshing compared to other novels. Great book with a twist that hit me like a truck. Would recommend!!
Side note: If you're not okay with white authors writing about non-white characters and culture, be aware of that happening here. I'm still struggling with my own opinion on that. Carrie and her father speak Spanish in this book, even though the author isn't native.
