Play The Game by J. Bree

This series is laced with drugs and I am officially 🎶addicted🎶 to this story. I do NOT need rehab. I’m exactly where I want to be. Go on without me.

Are the plot holes still present? Yes, yes they are. Could they mostly be fixed with a simple age up? Also yes!

That said, things are improving a little since the characters age up a year with each book. It doesn’t erase the fact that the “origin story” is too young to be believable, but at least it helps smooth the edges a bit.

I am in love with these characters and want to bask in this world for as long as possible, yet I'm tearing through these pages with the speed of a thousand Red Bulls. I need more of these side characters, and I will not be happy until I consume every scrap of content in this universe.

I already ordered the omnibus to sit proudly on my physical trophy shelf of favorites, because this is absolutely one of them. This book is crack. Parts are undeniably flawed, but I am so obsessed. Dear lord, I need help.

Don’t help me... I want to be here.
