Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reed

For our August book, we are tackling a classic beach read! It's a little longer than our usual picks, but we're crossing our fingers it's a quick read.

"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 . . ."

Two small housekeeping notes:

• We will choose the Sept book (10.09) during the meetup, so please fill in the recommendations question when you sign up! And we typically try to keep the books around 300 pages so that it's achievable to finish it in 3-4 weeks.
• If you can not make the meetup, please cancel in good time so that those joining from the waiting list have a fair chance to read the book.
