V roce 2012 se součástí Nakladatelství Slovart stalo nakladatelství Brio. Nakladatelství Brio vydávalo ve spolupráci s předními spisovateli a výtvarníky nádherně ilustrované originální příběhy a sbírky pohádek pro děti od šesti do dvanácti let. Pro starší děti, mládež a dospělé Brio nabízelo sebrané spisy pohádek a bajek od renomovaných spisovatelů, doplněné o to nejlepší z klasické literatury celého světa. V této tradici pokračujeme také my v rámci stejnojmenné edice.

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 . . .

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 -- Emily Henry

Fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid will adore thisStellar

Just like Carrie Soto, it's such a thrill to watch Taylor Jenkins Reid get better and better . . . she uses fame to illuminate the battles every woman has to fight - and in doing so, makes the reader feel powerful, too -- Caroline O'Donoghue

Addictive, fun and heartwarming. You will never want to leave Carrie Soto -- Fearne Cotton

Not every woman worries about winning a Grand Slam, but many can likely relate to Soto's challenges with getting older, wanting it all, and trying to manage a fiercely competitive spirit when the world expects women to stay quiet and smile nicely. It's for these reasons you find yourself rooting for the star, in spite of an attitude which isn't about endearing herself to others.
Jenkins Reid has written yet another page-turner which will have you hooked, from the first serve to match point. 9/10Independent

I was (still am) obsessed with her 2019 faux-oral history of a sixties rock band Daisy Jones and the Six and have taken one of her novels on holiday with me ever since. Her next book, Carrie Soto is Back, is released just in time for the dying days of summer on Tuesday 30 August. I must get a trip booked ― iNews

This some of Reid's best writing: focused, colourful and compassionate. The question is not whether Carrie can win, but whether she can ever be happy ― iNews

These are the types of novels to read if you're looking to be swept away by
a dazzling, entertaining story with fascinating charactersCosmopolitan

Like Jenkins Reid's
Daisy Jones and The Six, this is a compulsive read about the price of successGrazia

If you're still in mourning for Wimbledon,
this is the novel for youMetro

She's done rock 'n' roll, she's done surfing now Taylor Jenkins Reid turns her attention to the world of elite tennis in this
hugely entertaining and compulsively readable novel about a tennis player who comes out of retirement in her late 30s to reclaim her former glory ― Red

The captivating tale of a former tennis star goaded out of retirement in a final bid for grand-slam glory.
Edge-of-your-sunlounger stuffMail on Sunday

Taylor Jenkins Reid has done it again with her powerful new novel, which sees a legendary athlete attempt a comeback when the world considers her past her prime ― Hello

Taylor Jenkins Reid is fast becoming a modern literary success, with a chain of hugely popular novels under her belt . . . Her forte is creating page- turners about the rich, famous and the people lurking on the shadows of their starry lives. Fans of her previous work won't be disappointed with this exhilarating, escapist novel that will make the perfect summer read - strawberries and cream optional ― Carlisle Living

Jenkins Reid has written yet another page-turner which will have you hooked, from the first serve to match point ― Press Association

This
raw and powerful read shows Carrie growing and learning, about herself as much as others. Though she's an abrasive character, readers will cheer her on every step of the way ― Sunday Express

TJR is surely the queen of escapist fictionSunday Telegraph

This top-rank tale of beating the odds is full of heart and breezy charm Metro
