When reading a golf story, you’re more likely to relate to it than not, but not all golf stories are written by professional players. You should definitely read a book about the game, if for no other reason than to be enlightened. Here are five of the best golf stories, written by people who actually play the game. One of these stories is The Match, by Cypress Point. In a nutshell, this book is about a golfer who wins his first tournament and is devastated when he realizes that he’ll never play the same way again.
Book review of Shivas Irons
My book club discussion group has just finished The Kingdom of Shivas Irons, which I highly recommend. It’s the story of Murphy’s journey to Scotland in search of the Irons, who have been missing in the city for years. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the novel and learned a lot about these strange creatures. I’m looking forward to reading more about the Irons and their wisdom. This book is a must-read for anyone who loves golf.
Book review of Mr. Wizard
This book is a light-hearted tale about the complexities of family and legacy, and the search for answers to the mystery surrounding Mr. Wizard. The characters in Mr. Wizard are confronted with questions of legacy, change, and permanence. The author creates characters who experience unexpected connections to one another. While the book is a great read, it is not a must-read for everyone. For younger readers, Mr. Wizard may not be as well-suited to the genre as some others.
Book review of Everyone Here Is From Somewhere Else
Writing a book review can be challenging because you want to give readers an idea of what to expect, but you don’t want to reveal the ending.

Consider how they might relate to other books you’ve read or a character you know. You can even ask your readers which character they liked best.

Book review of Mind Game
