Books across genres featuring women in sports

Whether you call it football or soccer, you'll enjoy these biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs from some of the sport's biggest names.

These books have one, some, or all of the following vibes: a love of soccer; coziness; baked goods; grumpy/sunshine (à la our dear Keeley and Roy); found family; an exploration of shared humanity.
