To save their life, you have to play.

*The #1 audio bestseller*

Across the globe, five strangers receive a horrifying message from an unknown number.

THE PERSON YOU LOVE MOST IS IN DANGER.

To save them, each must play The Game–a sinister unknown entity that has a single rule: there can only be one winner.

IF YOU LOSE, YOUR LOVED ONE WILL DIE.

But what is The Game–and why have they been chosen?

There’s only one thing each of them knows for sure: they’ll do anything to win…

WELCOME TO THE GAME. YOU’VE JUST STARTED PLAYING.

ugh

Went nowhere, took forever to get there, & a lecture at the end. If that's what you enjoy, this is the book for you.

It was interesting. I will give it that. I was enjoying it for awhile until I felt like some things did not make sense and were not realistic. With that being said maybe the author was going for "life isn't always pretty" kind of vibe. I really just did not understand the ending though. It could have been great it just left more questions in my opinion though. Also TW this book is not for those who want to avoid the topic of SA just keep that in mind.

no no no

I can't get past the British voice actor's painful attempts at regional American accents. No. The writing and dialogue is really terrible. There is no way I can finish this. Save yourself.
