About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Carrie Soto is the greatest player the world has ever seen.

But six years after her last match, she watches a young British tennis player steal her world record - and Carrie knows she has to go back and reclaim her rightful place at the top. Even if the world doesn't believe in her. Even if it almost breaks her.

This is a story about the cost of greatness and the burden of fame.

The fight for a place in history is about to begin . . .

Critic Reviews

A portrait of female ambition in all its raw and divine glory, Carrie Soto will stay with you long after the last page is turned (Erin Kelly)
An exhilarating, immersive and gripping ode to the cost of greatness, this is Taylor Jenkins Reid's best book yet. Carrie Soto is an icon for the ages. Five stars, ten out of ten, an A+ and more from me! (Laura Jane Williams)
There's something about Carrie I will take forward with me in my life, and be a little better for. This book comes out in a few short weeks and you should preorder it. It made me cry twice, and when I finished reading, I had to sit for a minute with the hole it left in my chest . . . just order it (Emily Henry)

This book made me smile and cry. An insightful glimpse into pro tennis and the mental and physical preparation required to get to the top. Also a beautiful tale of growth and acceptance which are lessons we can all relate to.
Absolutely loved this.

Admittedly I am a fan of Taylor Jenkins Reid, but this book was still great. It had a little bit of everything you want - a little drama, love, heartache and tennis to pull it all together. Enjoyed this one

The story was enjoyable, shame about the narration. The narratiion of the 2 main parts, Carrie and Javier was irritatingly over acted. Both the Australian and British accents were so terrible though, laughably bad. I don't understand why they didn't hire a Brit or an Aussie to read those parts.

Enjoyable but disliked the narration.

*Spoilers ahead*

Having been a tennis fan for more than 40 years I loved this book. I particularly enjoyed the creation of Carrie Soto not being a “crowd darling” and the depiction of the media and how they criticise and judge people.

Another fun story by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I loved the characters and the story. This is the 4th Audible book I've bought that was written by this author. I've enjoyed them all.

This book is well narrated and easy to listen to (though the attempts at Australian and English accents by the lead narrator were pretty funny... I'm an Aussie).

For me this was a story that was fun and easy to listen to.

Loved the story and narration
