A Harmless Little Game

I received an audiobook copy of this book as a contest winning. All opinions are my own.

OK... this may be a spoiler, but going in, you need to know there is a cliffhanger. I got to the end of the book and went “that's it?!” Thankfully I have book 2 ready to go, otherwise I'd be totally ticked off.

This isn't my typical read. It's a little darker than I usually gravitate towards, but I admit that the blurb had my intrigued. The whole plot is on the dark side and really triggered some intense feelings from me. I mean, I felt so sorry for Lindsay and all that she had to go through. And it seems as if she doesn't really have any sort of support system and is practically alone in the world. I had a strong dislike of her parents and was seriously confused by her ex and now bodyguard, Drew.

Once the story got going, I was sucked in and kept listening because I just had to know what happened next. There were lots of twists and turns and then I was totally left hanging.

Since this was an audio book, I have to mention the narrator, Andi Arndt. I don't think I have listened to any books narrated by her in the past. But I was impressed. She had great pacing and enough inflection to really get across all of Lindsay's feelings and thoughts (the book was in first person).

All in all, while this isn't a book I would have normally read, I did enjoy it and can't wait to read more in the series.
