A review by beththebookdragon
Game on by James Larosa, Monica Seles
2.0
Reasonably well-written book about the stresses and drama of a working-class teenage tennis player attending a top-notch sports academy. Full of embarrassments, drama, cliques, poor-girl-with-rich kids and sexy romantic possibilities.
Good for mid-to-late teenagers into both sports and the "Gossip Girls" types of series. There's no actual sex or significant profanity that I could find, so it's comparatively "safe" for teens with hovering parents.
Note: I was "tasting" the first forty pages of this book for professional reasons, but I wouldn't have finished it regardless; it's a step above pure formula, but only a step.
