This is Ruby Tui. An open, raw and honest account of her journey from a troubled and unstable childhood, searching for a better option in life, to Olympic champion and the world's best rugby sevens player.

After a childhood filled with neglect Ruby yearned for another path. Determined not to let her upbringing limit her, she survived abuse, drugs and tragedy to become one of the most successful women's rugby players in the world.

The explosion of women's rugby on the global stage has matched the rise of Ruby's stellar career, as she has grown with the game from amateur to professional.

In Straight Up Ruby looks herself in the eye, understanding that she can turn pain into purpose.

It's time to be straight up.

I became a fan of women's rugby during Rio and it was because of Ruby Tui and the Black Ferns girls. This book was an inspiration and a reminder to me that when 'the going gets tough, you keep on going'. Great listen.

Such a great book about perseverance, gratitude, teamwork, coaching, daring and caring. Loved Ruby narrating this and think that, especially anyone who plays or coaches women’s rugby, but anyone in team sports should read this.
