What to expect

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 . . .

Critics Review

  • 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
  • This Nineties tennis romp is a crowd-pleaser. Taylor Jenkins Reid captures all the sweat, rivalry and glamour of elite sport

    The Times
  • In typical TJR fashion, it artfully combines the heady glamour of elite sport with questions about what happens when we find ourselves winning professionally, but losing personally . . . an escapist beach read

    Stylist
  • 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
