Numbers Game

Numbers Game Saga Book 1

De: Rebecca Rode

Narrado por: Stacey Glemboski

Treena is nervous for Rating Day. A single number will brand her forever - a valuable citizen, or a pathetic waste of space. Her top-Rated boyfriend is confident their scores will coincide so they can attend the academy together. But when the big day arrives, her true number shocks everyone.

To get her life and boyfriend back, she must go undercover and expose a military spy. Doesn't sound too hard, except that someone wants her dead. And then there's Vance, the mysterious soldier with a haunted past and beautiful brown eyes. Together, they discover a dark numbers conspiracy, one that shatters the nation's future. Treena must join up with Vance if she is to survive the dangerous game of numbers - and the terrible war that rages within her heart.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes I would...this is the kind of story that got me addicted to audible in the first place...Dystopic YA with a great storyline and a bit of romance!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Numbers Game?

When Treena finds her real dad, quite by accident...and when Treena also finds out her step dad signed away her empire..ooooh that ticked me off!

What if your life was based on a number?

This story feels so relevant today when so much of life is based on online popularity. There were some similarities to The Hunger Games in the concept (even the title), but this book is its own creature, and has a wonderfully cinematic buildup to an excellent ending. I loved the characters--both main characters felt real, and I wanted them both to succeed. I laughed, I cried, I got surprised where there were twists. The narration, as always with Stacey Glemboski, was excellent (she's why I first read this book, I just love her narrations!) Overall, an excellent read! Can't wait to read the next one!

I received a free review copy of this book and happily left this review.

Divergent meets Hunger Games. Future Dystopia.

This book follows the current popular theme: Future dystopian world, totalitarian government, female main character, male crush...
There were a lot of parallels to Divergent with a hint of Hunger Games or the Matched series.
I thought that the whole book was very well written, thrilling, and all-around hard to put down. Definitely a winner that will hopefully follow in the footsteps of some of the more popular titles in this genre.

The book opens with Treena, the main character, preparing for her rating day. In this futuristic world, citizens receive ratings based on grades, how useful they are to society, and how well they adhere to strict social rules. Treena is expected by her peers to receive a top rating, allowing her to go on and do great things in the government and society. When the ceremony ends in her receiving the lowest rating in her class, and one of the lowest ratings that society can give, she is both devastated and confused. How could her rating have been so low? When she is offered a chance at reconsideration if she undertakes a mission that immerses her into a world of danger, she begins to discover things she never knew about the society she has spent her entire life trying to live up to. Why has their government really been suppressing and imprisoning those living in small villages on the outskirts of their society? Why did she really receive such a low rating? Was she part of some greater plot by her government?

In the very beginning (the first hour or so) I wasn't that impressed. However, as the story continued, I found my self more and more drawn in by the characters.

Narration was very well done as well. The narrator was perfect for the main character.

If you liked Divergent, Hunger Games, Matched, or some of the other similar books in this genre, then you will like Numbers Game.

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, publisher, or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review. I was NOT required to write a positive review and this reflects my honest opinion of the work.

it is a slow brew

took me a while to get through this. the story is fine. it just tooka long time to get to a part where i wasn't waiting for excitement. it does get there. this book is a slow brew.
