Three teens at crossroads is a really cool idea, but I felt the sport aspect was a lot less emphasized than I would have thought or hoped for. I also found some of the problems very hastily handled. Still it was a decent and charming little read. 3.5 ish, maybe 4. Thanks for the arc
What drew me to this book was explaining it was Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants meets the French Open, and as an honest reviewer, I have to say that isn't what this is. That isn't a critique, rather it's a reality of the story. What this is really about is three young women figuring who have athlete (tennis, specifically) as part of their identity. They're each at crossroads for different reasons trying to figure out if that's what they really want. And that's a big question! Through alternating narrations, this struggle is told through each of their eyes. I will say I wish this did have a bit more tennis. Another reason I picked this up was because I haven't read much about this sport. But it was an interesting look into the world of three young women trying to figure it all out - Then again, isn't that what we're ALL out here trying to do? Thanks to NetGalley for the early look at this April 2024 release!
