The Olympics is here again! Two weeks of high drama across hundreds of sports that don't usually grace our screens. I love it, but I know it's not for everyone. That said, it's fun to read something thematically aligned to what's going on in the world, so here are some book recommendations that feature sports, but which you can enjoy whether you're a sports fan or not.

My full review of Headshot is in this video:
