I received this book as a Goodreads first-reads winner.
This is a hard book to review. I thought it started off a little slow but the premise of the story kept me going. When it got to the "meat" of the story where the characters were playing the game, it definitely got better. The changes to each of the six players as individuals and as a group were realistic and true to human nature if not enjoyable to read. I really liked the way the author told the story. I didn't rate it higher because I don't love the book - not because it wasn't good - more because it was hard to watch these young men and women do the things they did. I would recommend this book just not as a light summer beach book. I'm glad I got the chance to read it.
