wow. i loved your book . ! the characters came to life in my head, and i could it put down. i always wanted to know what would happen next. The setting in Montreal , the streets and stores made it more realistic, and it made it like every other day as teenage girl. iv already suggested it to a few of my friends, and they all started reading it. what made you write this book? and is it really based on a true events? |

Thanks for all your comments. I'm really glad I wrote On the Game. I hope it'll help my readers as you try to figure out your own relationships. I try to write the kind of books I'd have liked to read when I was a teenager! Best regards to all of you who have made comments! |

i read this book ... it is very suspensful & i couldnt stop reading it. I found it was good of you to write this book - because it is a good lesson for young readers. I started reading it then a lot of my other friends wanted to read it after me, so i let them,. they are now enjoying it too. I think it was interesting that you came up with an idea like that, because i think it catches a lot of people attention when they read it. good job, its a great book |

There's nothing more exciting than being young and in love -- especially when the object of your affection is an older guy who showers you with gifts and attention. But when Yolande's new boyfriend, Etienne, asks her to go on a date with another guy, it becomes clear that his love comes at a terrible price. Inspired by true events, On the Game follows one ordinary girl on an extraordinary journey into the dark world of teenage prostitution when i read that part i KNEW i had to read it... and right when i started to i prettyy much fell in love with it my favorite part was when Yolande tells Etienne off haha i am doing a review for my english class and i am getting soooooooooooooooooooooooooo many people to read this book |
