It‘s a nice story but most of the time I did not have a clue what the heck was going on. There were too many twists and lies and mysteries, I just couldn‘t keep up.

I was lied to, I saw things that weren’t even real, and I was forced to believe it was all a happy ending but, no. “It’s just a game” only applies to its actors, but its players suffer true consequences and Tella, the mastermind behind the troubles her sister and her new lover had faced, is no exception. I am literally SHOOK. I NEED to know what Tella bargained for, I need to know where their mother went, I need to know what this game really is.

This is a perfectly good book for YA readers that love a bit of fantasy and romance.

I'd probably recommend it to younger or newer readers of the genre as it's an easy read with lots of adventure and twists but it was also pretty predictable at times too.

I enjoyed the characters and the story enough to consider reading the next in the series but I won't rush to get to it.

There are a lot of readers that love this book and rightly so, it just wasn't one of my favourites.
