review:
'You Cannot Be Serious!: The Graphic Guide to Tennis' by Mark Hodgkinson is a fun collection of infographics about big time tennis.

Starting with a brief overview of the rules, there then follow pages of graphics on food served at big matches, player serve speeds and more. There are bios of all the big names like Federer and Williams and Connors. There are weird superstitions that players have and the kind of clothes they wear.

I'm not a huge tennis fan, but I'm familiar with the big names. I liked this look into the world of the superfamous and amazingly good players. I also liked the stories of the losses and long matches. The graphics were a fun way to deliver the stats.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group-Aurum Press, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
