Book Review: The Hating Game

Ever thought of mud-wrestling your ex-boyfriend?  How about staying in a caravan with two of your ex-boyfriends?  What if you unwittingly had a second chance at romance with 'the one'?  Would you take it?  These are just a few of the scenarios Mattie Johns must overcome to win the £200,000 prize money for the reality show ' The Hating Game.'   And if you're a fan of Chicklit and Romantic Comedy, pull up a pew, - this could be a book for you.

Mattie Johns is a young business woman whose recruitment agency could go under, -unless she signs up to a reality game show.  Enter, Nate - a very ambitious media type who is very keen to make his name in the show biz world.  This is like X-factor and Mystery Date rolled up in one, even though you know who the candidates are, you really want to find out which one Mattie may or may not give a second chance of the happily ever after with.  

Now - being a fan of reality shows I enjoyed the jostling behind the scenes of the Hating Game, the bickering between producers and crew - does this really go on?  *whispers* It could.  I don't know but it was entertaining. This is a chicklit book which delivers funny scenes, a touch of snark, and love -lost,found and unrequited.

Talli Roland is a lovely lady who supports many writers and bloggers in our blogging community, this is her debut novel, it's available now for kindle via Amazon.com., and the hard copy will be out in early 2011. Psst, if you don't already follow, you can find Talli here.
