SEEING SERENA

This biography of tennis great Serena Williams is written in a nonlinear format. Kaleo Griffith narrates with enthusiasm, reflecting the topics at hand and capturing Williams's many facets. Marzorati covers Williams from multiple vantage points--assorted matches, comments on religion, criticism from officials, her personal life, and more. Griffith gives an especially delightful scene--the moment when Williams meets the man who is now her husband, Alexis Ohanian--the slightly flirty tone it merits. This is an audiobook for those who want to learn a bit more about one of tennis's greatest players. Marzorati has done his research and keeps his personal opinion out of the way while Griffith's narration responds with well-played volleys.
