REVIEW & PRE-ORDER: The Hating Game by Sally Thorne

 
Title: The Hating Game by Sally Thorne 
Author: Sally Thorne 
Publisher: William Morrow 
Publication Date: August 9, 2016 

Synopsis: 
Nemesis (n.) 1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or overcome.

                       2) A person’s undoing

                       3) Joshua Templeman

Lucy Hutton and Joshua Templeman hate each other. Not dislike. Not begrudgingly tolerate. Hate. And they have no problem displaying their feelings through a series of ritualistic passive aggressive maneuvers as they sit across from each other, executive assistants to co-CEOs of a publishing company. Lucy can’t understand Joshua’s joyless, uptight, meticulous approach to his job. Joshua is clearly baffled by Lucy’s overly bright clothes, quirkiness, and Pollyanna attitude.

Now up for the same promotion, their battle of wills has come to a head and Lucy refuses to back down when their latest game could cost her her dream job…But the tension between Lucy and Joshua has also reached its boiling point, and Lucy is discovering that maybe she doesn’t hate Joshua. And maybe, he doesn’t hate her either. Or maybe this is just another game.

Snippet: 
"Shortcake, if we were flirting you’d know about it."
"Because I’d be traumatized?"
"Because you’d be thinking about it later on, lying in bed."
"Been imagining my bed, have you?"
"I bet it’s a very small bed."

Sonja’s Review


My friend messaged me raving about this book and politely, but firmly suggested that I should read it and since we have similar tastes in books, I thought I would give The Hating Game a shot — plus I have a serious weakness for the enemies-to-lovers plot line, so it was no huge sacrifice. As I began reading it, I could understand why my friend was taken with this amazing story Ms. Thorne has created. It is engaging, humorous, and highly entertaining. The Hating Game is a delicious slow burn that will have you eagerly turning the pages, devouring all the words, and will feed your love love/hating relationship soul.
