Review: Run the Game

How garbage like this gets published is beyond me, this has to be the most pointless, repulsive novel I have ever read. If this novel TRIED to teach me anything it would be that people that do drugs, say fuck and shit every other word, and date 14 year old prostitutes are cool...oh and that woman we are the devils whose only purpose in life is to be sluts and ruin guys lives. ..

Rating: Can I give this book negative stars?

In this gritty novel from the author of Exit Here and Dead End, love is a high-priced and dangerous game: Play or be played.Alexander didn’t believe in love at first sight until he met Patti. She’s the kind of girl you hear about in songs: gorgeous, feisty, and dangerous. Being with Patti is better than any high, and he can’t live without her.

But Alexander’s not the only one who wants to be with Patti. Burke ruthlessly takes what he wants and will kill to protect what is his. And he won’t let Patti go without a fight. If Patti and Alexander are going to be together, their love will come at a steep price. Because some promises are meant to be broken, and not all debts can be paid in cash….

*this review contains graphic language..you have been warned*

(you can read the goodreads description above about the book if you want, but it is completely misleading)

I have to be honest..originally I wasn't going to post a review of this book on my blog. But after having much thought I have decided to say..screw it and share my personal OPINION about this novel Run the Game, which is whole heartily the worst book I have ever read.

This book is marked as for 16 years or older...I'm sorry but is whoever set this age limit crazy? Ya maybe very mature for their age 16 year old teens could read this, but a regular immature 16 year old reading this? That is just scary. This book consisted of nasty sex scenes, that are in no way shape or form 'sexy' or 'romantic' or even hot, there just disgusting, I had to skim through them just to stop myself from throwing up.

For example in one scene Alexander our 19 year old drug addict that is oh so cool, and Patti the coolest chick ever who is a 14 year old prostitute are having sex and Alexander tells us how it was so 'hot' cause he stuck his fingers in her ass and then in her mouth...I'm sorry I need a minute..

What the hell...and this is suppose to be meant for 16 year olds?!?!? Ya that's SUCH a great thing to teach teens.

Oh and lets quote from the novel now shall we? WE SHALL! Now this is Alexander talking about how he does sexual favor for guys for money to get drugs.

"The first time I ever got picked up at the A-LOT, I was nervous as f**k. I ain't a homo. Putting that shit in your mouth. Slamming or getting slammed up the ass. Shit makes me wanna f**king vomit. Sends f**king shivers down my spine and shit" ~Alexander

Congratulations. You were able to use 7 cuss words in that tiny paragraph.

I don't mind bad language in novels, really I could care less, (it actually bothers me if there are NO cuss words in a novel) but when it comes off like the author is seriously TRYING to make half of the book to be cuss words, it gets annoying. If I EVER heard anyone talk like the characters do in this novel I would probably go crazy, lose my mind, and punch them.

I could go on for days about what garbage this novel is..

Overall I just did not like this book at all, alot of people said on my goodread's review that his other books are better and this one was just awful, will I read his other books? Eh maybe..but will I ever BUY another Jason Myers book? Hell no. I will get his books from the library or borrow them or something. Never ever would I spend money on this authors work.

Oh and to the guy on goodreads who said I must be a very sheltered adult to not have liked this novel. As Alexander would probably say..Fuck you, and shit.
