The Australian Open is in full swing and it is the ideal time to read Taylor Jenkins Reid\u2019s Carrie Soto is Back.<\/p>\n

The book is about a passionate, successful and temperamental tennis star and exposes the world of professional tennis.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve really enjoyed reading Taylor Jenkins Reid\u2019s books and this one is no exception. It is fast paced and descriptive, taking the reader inside the world that is so opaque to the general tennis-lover.<\/p>\n

Having attended the Australian Open since I was a child, when my mum used to pack an esky and we\u2019d sit in the arena all day, and now taking my own children, I\u2019m fascinated by the world the players inhabit.<\/p>\n

Carrie Soto seems to be inspired by firey players of the past \u2013 John McEnroe springs to mind. It reveals the passion and competitiveness that drive players, and the dog-eat-dog nature of the competition.<\/p>\n

While reading this book, I was torn between cheering for Carrie and hoping she would triumph, and being irritated by her selfishness and impetuousness. It made me think about the strength it must take players, who by nature must be incredibly competitive, to maintain their composure when they are losing a game.<\/p>\n

This is especially noticeable when they shake hands at the end of a match, regardless of how devastated they might be at their loss. This reality was brought to life last night when Coco Gauff was defeated, and waited until she was off court \u2013 and believed that she was not being filmed or seen \u2013 to smash her racquet on the ground.\u00a0 While the footage was controversial in its exposure of a private moment, it also showed the strength of the player to contain herself until after leaving the court.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in tennis, this is definitely one to read, although I\u2019m not sure how interesting it would be for people who have no experience watching or playing the sport.<\/p>\n

For me, it was a perfect backgrounder on the imagined lives of the tennis players I\u2019m watching this week.<\/p>\n
