Here is an excerpt of me reading one of the better books I've read in recent times. Written by prominent tennis star of the 1990s, Andre Agassi, 'Open' explores what it feels like to win big.....and to lose big, in exhaustively intense detail.

Leave a comment--What's something that you like that you feel like you're not supposed to like socially?
