Playing to Win by Saina NehwalMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Hooter: A chatty wikipedia page on Saina by Saina
For someone as straight talking and straight forward as Saina having met her (* adds flex *) , I can see how this book resonates with her. Focusses more on the chronological journey she went through and her thoughts along those moments - both high and low. There isn't any "what you can learn from my life motivational stories or anecdotes" trying to break the fourth wall here. It makes her more human and likeable beyond the media press releases we glimpse her personality through.
This is nowhere a literary genius neither is it meant to be but tiny gems like her mom wanted to fashion her around Steffi Graf , her love for ice cream and winning mindset to get through all obstacles - mental and physical, this is a quick breezy read for aimed at Saina fans.
