Don't worry about the tennis part, legit, i know nothing about it and it really doesn't matter. The way the book is written, there is no assumed knowledge for you to have about tennis. It's a book that is legit worth the hype. And I say this as a girlie who has resisted soooo many books

Not trying to convince you to read Carrie Soto is Back, but I will say, I was in the same position as you when it came out. It sounded like something I wouldn't enjoy, I bought it upon release and it took me over a year to get to it but once I did I did not put it down, it was a one day read for me! And a five star. Carrie is one of the most beautifully complex woman I have read in a while, she is brusque, and single-minded to the detriment of everything else in her life, and a little arrogant(is it arrogant if she can back it up with literally having been the best?), and yet you are on her side, you get where she is coming from. Her relationship with her dad/coach, with the sport, with her fellow players, with SPOILERS, and most of all with herself is just so complicated and rich and wonderful.

While it uses a season of professional tennis as a backdrop for the story, it is SO much more about her relationship with her dad/coach, her struggles with self-identity and being th best, and provides a look at the differences in how the public views men and women know profession tennis.

These books by Taylor Jenkins Reid are referred to as California Dream Crossover Series afaik. So the idea is that some characters of these books appear in the other books, and each one explores a different side of the LA stardom between 1950-80. Carrie Soto appeared in Malibu Rising, and her book is about sports stardom. Evelyn Hugo is set in Hollywood, while Daisy Jones is about the music industry.

If you give it a chance, I think you'd like it (even if you don't enjoy it, you certainly won't hate it). Also, Realm Breaker is also a book I really enjoyed personally, and it's not really that similar to Red Queen.

I think I recall you saying you never want to read the "game of thrones" series A Song of Ice and Fire. But in a video a few months ago you talked a few times about traits you want to see in a book and it vexed me that the answer was right there. You want books that have stakes and kill main characters when they mess up or books that sacrifice characters for a better story? ASOIAF. Also with as popular as the show and book series are I was spoiled for multiple deaths but it barely lessened the impact. I was a big time hater of the show and the series because of that annoying popularity but It's actually incredibly valid. I had to eat so much humble pie for being wrong (about the books at least, the show was a masterpiece for the first 5 seasons but even the bad seasons are a lot better than a lot of tv before or since) Also they're so much detail woven in that rereading the series multiple times I'm still going WOW when I realize bits of foreshadowing and things that connect later on and in previous history/lore. It's truly such an experience.

I know The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is like THE book but I loved Carrie Soto so much, it's literally my favourite TJR book. And I was sceptical at the beginning, cause I don't really care about tennis, and like yeah, I still don't get those tennis descriptions, and yeah there are some predictable moments, but the story slayed. The main difference between Carrie and Daisy and Evelyn is that Daisy and Evelyn are secure in their position in history, as these legends in their field. Carrie is not, all she has is tennis and her records and as long as she is the best, it's great, she'll be remembered. But when it looks like someone might take those records away, she's convinced she'll be forgotten. So she returns, and it's really heartbreaking, that she'll either win and get what she wants, or she'll lose and will fall even further down. And of course along the way she's learning there's more to life than just winning 🤩And this is personal but I kinda identified with Carrie, so I'm a bit biased, but something about this desire to be remembered, to be the best at all cost just spoke to me. I'm not sure if I'm doing the book justice with this description but of course I won't judge if you're not going to read it. 💕

I just finished Lessons in Chemistry and I went in thinking that I might not like it and I actually did like it. I kinda want to watch the show that was made for it even if that means getting Apple TV for a little bit. I love the dog 6:30 is the best!

Lessons in Chemistry is one of the worst books I've read in a looong time. I read it for a "book" club with friends where some of us read the book and others watched the show, and only the people who watched the show enjoyed it. I think all the hype comes from the show because the book came across as super pretentious, and it was just overall poorly executed.

I am never reading Cassandra Clare books again. The Last Hours trilogy and Sword Catcher finally made me realize how godawful her writing actually is.

Jesse. Thanks for showing me all the HigH Fantasy books that I need to avoid!! There are 2 books on your list that I do want to read. Lessons in Chemistry - the TV Show looks good - and Carrie Soto - because Evelyn Hugo was wonderful and they do have a slight connection!! The rest I can ignore. Especially Icebreaker. I live in Canada and Hockey is way over saturated up here!!

Whenever someone asks me about my opinion on FW, I’m just gonna show them your reaction 3:14, cause nothing ever has described my feelings towards this book more than you in this moment 😂 + Lessons on Chemistry & Red Queen & Zodiac & FBAA are in my TBR (has been for a long while just like many other books) + I loved the Shatter Me series and I think we needed more than just 3 books in order to understand the past of the characters and how did their world came to be the way it is in the story. Also, I just really love long series. I just started reading This Woven Kingdom, the start is a bit slow but I think I'm gonna like where this is going, especially that the book is talking about geneies. + I really hated Evelyn, I just DNFed it. + Same opinion about the whole Twisted series. Honestly, all men written by Ana are the exact same man but in different fonts 🙃

I have 2 authors that are super popular and I have tried reading but I am not a fan. They would be Colleen Hoover and Brandon Sanderson.

I honestly love how you match the mug! My views on the books: 1. I have fourth wing so I'll read it, but I doubt I'll pick up book two. I'm just not going to read a book that people who really liked the 1st one spoke negatively about (+ 5 book series? Seriously?) 2. I was interested to read it because of the hype but now I just don't care about it. 3. My tbr is full of romance, but since I've heard it's a bad book, I'll take it as a sign to not pick it up. 4. TJR books just aren't for me. 5. Currentlyu not in a mood to read 3+ book series, plus my bestie didn't love it, so... 6. Read it. It's meh. It wasn't horrible to me but wasn't special. Read book two and they just get lower and lower star ratings from me, the 3rd book was a dnf, so bye bye. 7. Too many books, plus I heard bad things. 8. I've seen so many booktubers not like it, plus my bestie, so I'll take that as a warning to not buy the book. 9. The reviewer is a red flag, so me no touchy their books 10. This book is a series. The 1st one is 550+ pages. Just not into it. 11. JUST NO
