    The Hating Game by Talli Roland
  

*by N***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 February 2012*

Mattie Johns runs a recruitment agency, but things are not going too well for her. When she broke up from her ex Kyle Cook, he had taken almost half her clients when he had set up his own agency. Business was now so bad that Mattie is about to go bankrupt.Then when Mattie is approached to appear and take part in a brand new TV reality show and is told that the price money is two hundred grand. Mattie sees this as the answer to all her problems and agrees to take part.Little does Mattie know that the show she was told was called "Second Chance for Romance" is actually a show called "The Hating Game" and that Mattie had been selected to take part due to her having a long line of exes to choose from because "The Hating Game" is actually a dating game that the contestants that Mattie will be choosing to date, are actually four of her exes!With the TV production company not been entirely honest with Mattie, just how far are they prepared to go to make and manipulate in order to make entertaining television and to get good ratings?Talli Roland books really make me laugh. They are written with really good humour that make you laugh out loud at times but also gasp at times at the behaviour of some of the characters. The Hating Game is a really great, enjoyable and entertaining read.

    EX-cellent

This book is the second book I've read by Talli Roland (I went on to read the third - Watching Willow Watts after this), and I think (like a lot of others are saying), she could become a firm favourite in my chick lit collection.Like Build-a-man (the book I really enjoyed, that led me to seek out other Talli Roland books), this was well observed and fun.  I really warmed to the main character and was rooting for her all the way through, as she was refreshingly the opposite of most chick lit protagonists.  It gave such a well humoured, and sometimes scary insight into how reality TV works, which made for entertaining and thought provoking reading.  OK so it is still chick lit, but at least it carried a valid message. And do you know what I loved it!The only faults I could find, was the lack of character development for Jess and sometimes the suspension of dis-believe that the main character would have gone through with it all, though that was explained adequately enough with her debts etc.... Also the first few pages were a bit gratuitous and far fetched.  PLUS I'd have liked more fall out and reaction over the Adam situation towards the end...On the whole, another cracking read from Talli and I look forward to what else she comes up with. (I'll be pre-ordering Build a couple or whatever the sequal to build a man is rumoured to be called)

    Refreshing and insightful, you'll never view reality TV in the same light!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 January 2013*

After reading some of Talli Roland's other books, I bought this hoping it would be as good as they were and it most definitely was.The book was so different from other rom coms , it was extremely refreshing to read a book where the heroine wasn't a weak 'help me' kind of woman. Many people have reviewed negatively about her being 'unlikable' yet I disagree, the fact that she isn't a typical rom com girl makes the novel all the more interesting. It becomes a strange paradox when you find yourself routing for the woman who originally was a complete bitchy character!Many novels are becoming predictable these days yet Roland makes hers that little bit unique.Trust me in the fact that if you buy this book you'll never view reality TV the same, I certainly wont!Such a great read and very entertaining, for me and the people who gave me strange looks as I burst into laughter on the train.BUY IT!
